The L to T Dwarf Transition
M. S. Marley, M. C. Cushing, D. Saumon
While the precise mechanism responsible for the L to T dwarf transition remains unclear, it is clearly caused by changing cloud characteristics. Here we briefly review data relevan…
The Mid-Infrared Spectra of Brown Dwarfs
D. Saumon, M. S. Marley, K. Lodders
We present an analysis of brown dwarf model spectra in the mid-infrared spectral region (5 - 20 microns), in anticipation of data obtained with the Space Infrared Telescope Facilit…
Clouds and Clearings in the Atmospheres of the L and T Dwarfs
M. S. Marley, A. Ackerman, A. J. Burgasser +3
A sophisticated approach to condensate opacity is required to properly model the atmospheres of L and T dwarfs. Here we review different models for the treatment of condensates in…
Response to Technical Comments regarding the paper "Direct Detection of Galactic Halo Dark Matter"
B. R. Oppenheimer, N. C. Hambly, A. P. Digby +2
We reply to the criticism of Gibson & Flynn and of Graff regarding "Direct detection of galactic halo dark matter" by Oppenheimer et al. (2001) (Science, Vol. 292, p. 698), which r…
New Ideas in the Theory of Extrasolar Giant Planets and Brown Dwarfs
Adam Burrows, W. B. Hubbard, J. I. Lunine +2
We summarize and extend recent work on the theory of extrasolar giant planets (EGPs) and brown dwarfs, paying particular attention to Gliese 229 B, the albedos of EGPs, the composi…
The Spectral Character of Giant Planets and Brown Dwarfs
A. Burrows, M. Marley, W. B. Hubbard +6
Since October of 1995, employing Doppler spectroscopy astronomers have discovered as many as 20 giant planets and brown dwarfs, including companions to Boo, 51 Peg, …
