Brown dwarfs are substellar objects unable to stably fuse hydrogen in their interior. Since the discovery of the first brown dwarf in an open cluster, namely...

Brown dwarfs are objects unable to sustain hydrogen burning in their interiors. Deep surveys and large scale infrared surveys have identified a few hundred...

Since the discovery of the first brown dwarfs, Teide 1 and Gl 229B in 1995, several hundreds of substellar objects have been discovered. During these fifteen...

In this paper we describe three lines of work that are being developed in the framework of the Spanish Virtual Observatory.

We present the results of the optical photometric observations of the Pleiades (125 Myr) cluster. The aim of this research is to look for variability, both due...

Over the last two decades, many efforts have been devoted to the search for brown dwarfs, and various ways of finding them have been developed. Deep photometric...

We have obtained a new, deep, wide-field optical imaging survey of the young Alpha Persei cluster which reveals a well-populated lower main sequence extending...

We have discovered a relatively large number of brown dwarf candidates in the Pleiades young open cluster as a result of a deep CCD IZ survey covering 1 deg^2...
