A New Spectral Class of Brown Dwarfs at the Bottom of the IMF in IC 348
In a previous study, we used James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to identify three new brown dwarfs in the center of a nearby star-forming cluster, IC 348. The faintest object had an estimated mass of 3–4 M _Jup , making it a contender for the least massive brown dwarf confirmed with spectroscopy. Two...
