Self-consistent Models of Y Dwarf Atmospheres with Water Clouds and Disequilibrium Chemistry
Y dwarfs are the coolest spectral class of brown dwarf. They have effective temperatures less than 500 K, with the coolest detection as low as ∼250 K. They make up the low-mass tail of the star formation process, and are a valuable analog to the atmospheres of giant gaseous exoplanets in a temperatu...
