The Spectra and Classification of L and T Dwarfs
In this contribution, I discuss some of the salient features of L and T dwarf spectra in both the red optical (6300--10000 Å) and near-infrared (1--2.5 $\micron$) wavelength regimes. Important absorption bands and lines, including those of H$_2$O, CH$_4$, FeH, CrH, CO, and the alkali metal lines, are identified, and the development of recent ...

T DWARFS AND THE SUBSTELLAR MASS FUNCTION. I. MONTE CARLO SIMULATIONS
Monte Carlo simulations of the field substellar mass function (MF) are presented, based on the latest brown dwarf evolutionary models from Burrows et al. and Baraffe et al.

Accretion in ρ Ophiuchus brown dwarfs: infrared hydrogen line ratios
Context: .Mass accretion rate determinations are fundamental for an understanding of the evolution of pre-main sequence star circumstellar disks. Aims: .Magnetospheric accretion models are used to derive values of the mass accretion rates in objects of ...
