QUOTE {}In this way, we discovered nine new brown dwarfs in IC 348. The faintest of these objects have mass estimates of 2 Jupiter masses, making them new record holders for the least massive brown dwarfs found to date.
QUOTE {}The JWST spectrum of one of the new 2 Jupiter-mass brown dwarfs exhibits that signature of a disk, as shown below, where we compare it to a brown dwarf that lacks a disk. This object is the least massive known brown dwarf with a disk.
