We present a new grid of cloudy atmosphere and evolution models for substellar objects. These models include the effect of refractory cloud species, including silicate clouds, on the spectra and evolution. We include effective temperatures from 900 to 2400 K and surface gravities from log g=3.5-5.5, appropriate for a broad range of objects with masses between 1 and 84 Jupiter masses. Model pressure-temperature structures are calculated assuming radiative-convective and chemical equilibrium. We consider the effect of both clouds and metallicity on the atmospheric structure, resulting spectra, and thermal evolution of substellar worlds. We parameterize clouds using the Ackerman & Marley (2001) cloud model, including cloud parameter fsed values from 1-8; we include three metallicities (-0.5, 0.0, and +0.5). Refractory clouds and metallicity both alter the evolution of substellar objects, changing the inferred temperature at a given age by up to 100-200 K. We compare to the observed photometry of brown dwarfs, finding broad agreement with the measured photometry. We publish the spectra, evolution, and other data products online with open access.

  1. NIRCam yells at cloud: JWST MIRI imaging can directly detect exoplanets of the same temperature, mass, age, and orbital separation as Saturn and Jupiter

    astro-ph.EP 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    MIRI F2100W imaging can detect 95-125 K giant exoplanets around nearby M-dwarfs, including Saturn analogs, and beats NIRCam coronagraphy for cloudy cold planets within about 20 pc.

  2. On the Eccentricity Distribution and Tidal Evolution of Transiting Brown Dwarfs

    astro-ph.EP 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Short-period (P<16 d) transiting brown dwarfs are low-eccentricity while longer-period ones are more excited; assuming a shared primordial Beta distribution, tidal evolution constrains Q_BD ≈ 10^{7.1–8.1}.

  3. Classifying Cool Dwarfs: Comprehensive Spectral Typing of Field and Peculiar Dwarfs Using Machine Learning

    astro-ph.SR 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A K-nearest-neighbors model trained on noise-added standard spectra classifies M0-T9 cool dwarfs within one subtype 95.5% of the time and assigns gravity or metallicity class correctly 89.5% of the time on 1,300 held-...

  4. JWST Coronagraphic Images of 14 Her c: a Cold Giant Planet in a Dynamically Hot, Multi-planet System

    astro-ph.EP 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    JWST/NIRCam imaging detects 14 Her c at 5.7 sigma and revises the system's orbits, supporting a dynamically hot architecture with a possible cold cloudy atmosphere.
