SIGNATURES OF CLOUD, TEMPERATURE, AND GRAVITY FROM SPECTRA OF THE CLOSEST BROWN DWARFS

We present medium-resolution optical (λ/Δλ ~ 4000) and near-infrared (λ/Δλ ~ 8000) spectral data for components of the newly discovered WISE J104915.57-531906.1AB (Luhman 16AB) brown dwarf binary. The optical spectra reveal strong 6708 Å Li I absorption in both Luhman 16A (8.0 ± 0.4 Å) and Luhman 16...
