Discovery of Very-Low-Mass Binary Stars and Circumstellar Disks in the Infrared

We present results from three infrared observational studies investigating different aspects of stellar evolution. The first survey, conducted in the near-infrared with adaptive optics, measures for the first time the stellar multiplicity properties of field M6-M7.5 dwarf stars. We report that their...
