Directory structure is as follows:

/free_retrieval/: All posteriors here result from the model assumptions stated in Section 4.2.1 in the manuscript and were used for the analysis in Sections 4.3 as well.

/constrained_retrieval/: All posteriors here result from the model assumptions stated in Section 4.2.2 of the manuscript.

/additional_retrievals/2212-6931_kirkpatrick2012/: Shows the results for both the "free" and "constrained" model assumptions using a distance estimate from Kirkpatrick et al. (2012) as mentioned in Section 4.2.3 of the manuscript.

/grid_model_fits/:

Contains directories for each grid model ran against our targets. Targets are specified by the first 4 numbers (RA) of their WISE/ALLWISE name. The subname specifies the free parameters of the grid model were and are as follows:

_solar: Only Teff, log(g), radius, and log(Luminosity) are free parameters.

_met: Same as solar, but now the metallicity of the system is a free parameter.

_kzz: Same as solar, but now the eddy diffusion coefficient Kzz is also a free parameter.

_CO: Same as solar, but now the elemental Carbon/Oxygen ratio is a free parameter.

_full: All of the above are free parameters.
