  "abstract": "<p>Brown dwarfs are substellar objects too low mass to initiate the hydrogen fusion necessary to be considered stars. Ultracool dwarfs, objects with spectral types of M7 or later,&nbsp;are a mix of low mass stars and brown dwarfs. We have obtained the first high-resolution (R &sim; 45, 000) H- and K-band spectral sequence of ultracool dwarfs with spectral types ranging from M1.5 V to T6, including known low-gravity objects at six spectral types (M9, L0, L1, L2, L3, L5). All spectra were obtained using the Immersion Grating INfrared Spectrometer (IGRINS) at a resolving power of R &sim; 45,000. We compared 22 of our objects to synthetic spectra created from the atmospheric models of Saumon &amp; Marley (2008), to measure specific properties including effective temperature, cloud properties, rotational velocities, and surface gravity.</p>",
