Item Optical spectroscopy of candidates of young stellar objects in NGC 1333(2010-12-31) Itoh, Yoichi; et al.; Gupta, Ranjan; Oasa, YumikoWe carried out low-resolution optical spectroscopy of 14 low-luminosity young stellar object (YSO) candidates in the NGC 1333 cluster. These objects were previously identified by the near-infrared imaging survey. Eleven objects were confirmed as YSOs by the H line emission. Strengths of the H emission are correlated with the near-infrared excesses of the objects. Spectral types of all YSOs are estimated to be M-type, indicative of low-mass. Comparisons of the results of our spectroscopic observations and the previous photometric observations with evolutionary tracks on the HR diagram suggest two objects to be young brown dwarfs.
