Searching for Brown Dwarf Outflows

2009 
As outflow activity in low mass protostars is strongly connected to accretion it is reasonable to expect accreting brown dwarfs to also be driving outflows. In the last three years we have searched for brown dwarf outflows using high quality optical spectra obtained with UVES on the VLT and the technique of spectro-astrometry. To date five brown dwarf outflows have been discovered. Here the method is discussed and the results to date outlined.
