Low-Mass Dwarf Template Spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

John J. Bochanski, Andrew A. West, Suzanne L. Hawley +1

We present template spectra of low-mass (M0-L0) dwarfs derived from over 4,000 Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) spectra. These composite spectra are suitable for use as medium-resol…
