Scientific paper

There are four known brown dwarfs which are members of the TW Hya Association (TWA). With an age of 10 Myr and a distance of only fifty parsecs, this association is the best opportunity to study young brown dwarfs in detail. Chandra has already observed two of the TWA brown dwarfs; we propose here to observe the other two. By doubling the sample, we will test ideas about coronal and chromospheric emission and about activity due to accretion from circumstellar disks. Spitzer observations for all of these brown dwarfs have been taken or are scheduled.
