摘要：

We present low-resolution Keck I/LRIS-ADC spectra spanning from 3200-9000 angstrom of six young brown dwarfs in the TW Hya Association and in Upper Sco. The optical spectral types of the sample range from M7.25-M8.75, though two have near-IR spectral types of early L-dwarfs. For four brown dwarfs in our sample, the accretion luminosity is measurable only when the image is binned over large wavelength intervals. This method extends our sensivity to accretion rate down to similar to 10(-13) M-circle dot yr(-1) for brown dwarfs.
