Brown Dwarves & Hertzprung-Russel?

Has anybody yet extended the HR diagram to include the recently
enumerated
population of brown dwarves? If so, can anybody provide a link to a
site
that details it? TIA.

Unless you're doing astronomy in middle earth those are called brown dwarfs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarf indicates that both plurals are
acceptable. But LymanAlpha is right: in astronomy, it's "dwarfs."
