Description
We present low resolution optical spectra of isolated planetary candidate members of the young cluster σ Orionis. Using several key spectral features, as well as pseudocontinuum indices, we have derived spectral types for this sample and confirmed the nature and the membership of all of them but one. Additionally, the results suggest that one, and possibly other two, could be binary systems. Finally, most of the objects have Hα in emission.

    Design and manufacture of athermalized optomechanical mounts for GRANCAIN, the infrared imaging instrument for GTC's adaptive optics
    GRANCAIN (GRAN CAmara INfrarroja) is a first-light imaging instrument in the infrared J, H and K bands that will be integrated into the adaptive optics focus of the Gran Telescopio de Canarias. The purpose of the instrument is to capture SWIR diffraction-limited images for a field of view of 22x22 arcsec. The instrument boasts a telecentric optical

    Measuring Rotation Periods and Stellar Oscillations in Red Giants with TESS Data
    TESS is a powerful engine for studying stellar variability. However, it has been challenging to adopt methods used for other space missions, such as Kepler, to infer rotation periods and solar-like oscillation frequencies in TESS data. The availability of multiple sectors of data for most targets, improved stability, and the release of new
