Models are available for download at ATMO 2020.

The ATMO 2020 Model Spectra here are part of the atmosphere and evolutionary models for cool T-Y brown dwarfs and giant exoplanets in radiative-convective equilibrium. The original models have wavelength in units of \(\mu m \) and fluxes  in units of  \(Watts \ m^{-2} \mu m^{-1}\). Our models were converted to wavelength in units in \(\dot{A}\)and fluxes in units of \(erg\ s^{-1}cm^{-2}A^{-1}.\)

Although the authors offer models for several log (g) values, here we limit the set to the models with log(g) = 5.0. These models are generated using solar metallicity and with a temperature range between 200 K to 2000 K, as recommended by the authors.

Table 1 provides the full list of models offered via MAST HLSP (ATMO 2020).
