This is an overview of the state-of-the-art in the study of very-low-mass stars, especially brown dwarfs. The book covers observations as well as modelling techniques, especially addressing the current status of our theoretical understanding of these objects.
This is a complete overview of the state of the art in the study of very-low-mass stars, especially brown dwarfs. It covers observations as well as modelling techniques, especially addressing the current status of our theoretical understanding of these objects; the relation of observed luminosity and mass functions to star formation. Besides the problems of clustering, surface activity, and current estimates of the mass density in low-mass stars, the reader will also learn how many bona fide brown dwarfs have been unambiguously detected so far. The book addresses astronomers and astrophysicists, researchers and graduate students.
