Descripción
We observed the black hole candidate XTE J1752-223 (ATel #2258) with the William Herschel Telescope (WHT) and the ACAM imager/spectrograph at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, La Palma, Spain. Two R-band exposures of 60 and 200 s and one I-band exposure of 200 s were taken under photometric conditions and 1.0-1.2-arcsec seeing on Aug 8.925, Aug 8.927 and Aug 8.930, respectively. Due to the seeing conditions we were not able to fully resolve the nearby star 0.8 arcsec north of the target.

    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
