Abstract

We obtained near-infrared spectra of a sample of very low mass objects as a function of age in order to investigate the temperature and surface gravity sensitivity of several features in the J and K bands.

Keywords

brown dwarf atmospheres near-infrared spectroscopy physical parameters temperature surface gravity J band K band
