OPTICAL AND NEAR-INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY OF THE L SUBDWARF SDSS J125637.13-022452.4

Red optical and near-infrared spectroscopy are presented for SDSS J125637.13-022452.4, one of only four L subdwarfs reported to date. These data confirm the low-temperature, metal-poor nature of this source, as indicated by prominent metal-hydride bands, alkali lines, and collision-induced H2 absorp...
