General Description

Integral field spectroscopy of a faint sub-stellar companion candidate
 to a T Tauri star

A K=17.5 mag companion candidate 3.75 arcsec southeast of the close star [MR81]
 HA 2 (R=14.1mag;K=8.1mag)

Integral field spectroscopy to get a more precise estimate of its properties as
 e.g. temperature and extinction by comparison of its spectra and properties to atmospheric
 and theoretical models, respectively.

A Position Angle of -120.8 is used for the companion candidate of [MR81] HA 2
to get the finer sampling for the connection line between primary and companion
 candidate to be able to remove the background in the best way.

If easily available, we would prefer an early type star (e.g. B star) as telluric
 standard star. Thank you.
