Effective temperature/age relation defined by the Burrows et al. (1997, 1993) models. The evolutionary tracks are plotted for masses of between 0.009 and 0.10 M⊙, with the individual curves identified on the diagram. The horizontal lines outline the temperature range which corresponds to the L dwarf spectral type.
