Abstract

Through the Spitzer IRAC GTO program, we have recently begun extremely sensitive mid-infrared imaging of young brown dwarfs in the nearest star-forming regions. The spectral energy distributions measured from these data provide unprecedented measurements of the fraction of known young brown dwarfs that have circumstellar disks. These Spitzer data are also the first observations capable of detecting Class I brown dwarfs, or protobrown dwarfs.
