VLT/X-shooter spectrum of USco1556 B in the VIS band (black) overplotted with SDSS templates (coloured) from Bochanski et al. (2007), for comparison. For a better visualisation, the X-shooter spectrum has been degraded to the resolution of the SDSS spectra using a Gaussian kernel. The spectra have been normalised at ~8150 Å, and shifted by a constant for clarity. The most prominent spectral features are labelled.
