A Deep Optical Search for Substellar Candidates in the Nearby ρ Ophiuchi Star-Forming Region
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 May 2016
Abstract
We report preliminary results from a deep I-band optical search for substellar candidates in the p Oph star-forming region. The dusty molecular cloud provides an opaque screen at optical wavelengths, making the survey sensitive to faint substellar candidates near the cloud surface. Of the 89 objects detected in the oph A and oph C molecular cores, one third are substellar candidates.
