Abstract
Using profinite Galois descent, we compute the Brauer group of the -local category relative to Morava E-theory. At odd primes this group is generated by a cyclic algebra formed using any primitive st root of unity, but at the prime two is a group of order with nontrivial extensions; we give explicit descriptions of the generators, and consider their images in the Brauer group of . Along the way, we compute the relative Brauer group of completed , using the \'etale locally trivial Brauer group of Antieau, Meier and Stojanoska.
