We aim to measure Gemini z' photometry to measure the rotation period of a nearby T6 brown dwarf. This brown dwarf shows periodic radio bursts (P=0.288 hr) over 8 months, leading to the claim that this brown dwarf may be rotating near its critical break-up rate. Photometry is a proven method of measuring brown dwarf rotation via cloud modulation of the light curve, and our observations could confirm the rotation period, enabling future studies.
