Scientific paper

We propose to embark upon a systematic investigation of X-ray activity on field stars and brown dwarfs at the spectral type M/L transition and beyond using sensitive XMM-Newton observations. The aim of this study is to examine the nature and efficiency of stellar dynamos at the bottom of the main-sequence. For this purpose we carefully selected a sample of ultra-cool dwarfs (spectral type M7 and later) which are nearby (within 15 pc) and known to sustain a chromosphere (Halpha emission has been detected). These characteristics make our targets most promising in a search for X-ray emission.
