Astro2020 Science White Paper: High-Resolution Spectroscopic Surveys of Ultracool Dwarf Stars & Brown Dwarfs
Abstract
High resolution spectroscopy of the lowest-mass stars and brown dwarfs reveals their origins, multiplicity, compositions and physical properties, with implications for the star formation and chemical evolution history of the Milky Way. We motivate the need for high-resolution, infrared spectroscopic surveys to reach these faint sources.
