Scientific paper

We propose to use NICMOS to observe two brown dwarf systems discovered using HST/WFPC2 imaging. Each of the two late-L dwarf primaries has a secondary that is much fainter. Based on the limited optical photometry available, the secondaries lie at the L/T Dwarf transition, and may lie anywhere in the range from L9 {cooler than any known L dwarf} or early-T. NICMOS photometry will be used to characterize the spectral energy distribution and search for methane absorption.
