Alkali Metals and the Color of Brown Dwarfs
Abstract
I summarize some of the consequences for the optical and very-near-infrared spectra of T dwarfs (in particular) and brown dwarfs (in general) of their possible dominance by the neutral alkali metal lines. As a byproduct of this study, I estimate the true optical color of ``brown'' dwarfs.
