Magnetic Field on Brown Dwarf LSR J18353790+3259545
Abstract
We model the full Stokes spectrum of the brown dwarf LSR J18353790+3259545 in the bands of the diatomic molecules CrH, TiO, and FeH in order to infer its magnetic properties. The models are then compared to the observational data obtained with the low resolution polarimeter LRIS at Keck observatory. Our preliminary analysis shows that the brown dwarf considered possesses a magnetic field of the order of 2-3 kG.
