The luminosity and mass functions of low-mass stars in the galactic disk. II. The field

… We report on new measurements of the luminosity function (LF) and mass function (MF)
of field low-mass dwarfs derived from Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 6 photometry.
The analysis incorporates ∼15 million low-mass stars (0.1 ${\cal M}_\odot <$ … For low-mass
stars, with lifetimes much greater than the Hubble time, the observed present-day mass
function (PDMF) in the field should trace the initial mass function (IMF). Following Salpeter (1955),
the IMF has usually been characterized by a power law $\psi ({\cal M}) = dN / d{\cal M} \propto …

We report a sign error in the Mr, r− i color–magnitude relation in Table 4 of the published
paper. The correct relation is given in Table 1 below. The results in the published paper are
unchanged as the error appeared only in the transcription of the relation in the original table.
We regret any confusion this may have caused and thank Andrew Becker and Beth Willman
for pointing out the discrepancy.
