Scientific paper

The possibility that the 'missing mass' in the solar neighborhood may be accounted for by the existence in sufficiently great numbers of such very low mass stars as brown dwarfs, as well as very old dead stars now observable as cold, low-luminosity degenerates, is presently addressed observationally with a search through ESO R Survey plates using a stereocomparator. Attention is given to ESO area 439, where four low-luminosity degenerates have been discovered by the present study.
