Descripción
Preliminary results of a candidate luminous blue variable (LBV) search made in a region of M33 are presented. The objects were found with narrow band filter images centered on characteristic emission lines of these objects. We show that the GTC, with the appropriate instrumentation, would generate important results through the analysis of high resolution optical spectral analysis of these kinds of objects in the Local Group.
