Scientific paper

Eighty nearby, low mass dwarfs of type M5.0V and later will be observed with IRAC to discover companions with masses as low as 10-20 Mjup. These targets are ideal for a companion search because they are nearby, yet relatively faint. This allows low mass companions to be revealed close to the target object because the psf of the primary isn't overwhelming. The mass limit of 10-20 Mjup (depending on target distance) for this survey is for 30 sec integrations in the 4.5 micron band. In addition to the companion search, this study will provide double duty because the targets themselves are the ideal calibrators for other IRAC brown dwarf search programs.
