Ultracool Dwarfs Observed with the Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph: Equatorial Latitudes in L Dwarf Atmospheres Are Cloudier

njccdej3xm1i
We report direct observational evidence for a latitudinal dependence of dust cloud opacity in ultracool dwarfs. indicating that equatorial latitudes are cloudier than polar latitudes. These results are based on a strong positive correlation between the viewing geometry and the mid-infrared silicate absorption strength in mid-L dwarfs using mid-infrared spectra from the Spitzer Space T... https://jalyttlers.shop/product-category/globe/
