SDSS J141624.08+134826.7: Blue L Dwarfs and Non-Equilibrium Chemistry

, 2010
We present an analysis of the recently discovered blue L dwarf SDSS J141624.08+134826.7. We extend the spectral coverage of its published spectrum to ~4 microns by obtaining a low-resolution L band spectrum with SpeX on the NASA IRTF.
