Abstract

In order to obtain a complete census of the stellar and substellar population, down to a few M_Jup_ in the ~1Myr old Orion Nebula Cluster, we used the infrared channel of the Wide Field Camera 3 of the Hubble Space Telescope with the F139M and F130N filters. These bandpasses correspond to the 1.4{mu}m H2O absorption feature and an adjacent line-free continuum region. Out of 4504 detected sources, 3352 (about 75%) appear fainter than m130=14 (Vega mag) in the F130N filter, a brightness corresponding to the hydrogen- burning limit mass (M~0.072M_{sun}_) at ~1Myr. Of these, however, only 742 sources have a negative F130M-F139N color index, indicative of the presence of H2O vapor in absorption, and can therefore be classified as bona fide M and L dwarfs, with effective temperatures T<~2850K at an assumed 1Myr cluster age. On our color-magnitude diagram (CMD), this population of sources with H2O absorption appears clearly distinct from the larger background population of highly reddened stars and galaxies with positive F130M-F139N color index and can be traced down to the sensitivity limit of our survey, m130~21.5, corresponding to a 1Myr old ~3M_Jup_ planetary-mass object under about 2mag of visual extinction. Theoretical models of the BT-Settl family predicting substellar isochrones of 1, 2, and 3 Myr down to ~1M_Jup_ fail to reproduce the observed H2O color index at M<~20M_Jup_. We perform a Bayesian analysis to determine extinction, mass, and effective temperature of each substellar member of our sample, together with its membership probability.
