Densities of Solar System Objects from their Rotational Lightcurves
Pedro Lacerda, David Jewitt
We present models of the shapes of four Kuiper belt objects (KBOs) and Jovian Trojan (624) Hektor as ellipsoidal figures of equilibrium and Roche binaries. Our simulations select t…
Excitation of solar-like oscillations across the HR diagram
R. Samadi, D. Georgobiani, R. Trampedach R. +3
We extend semi-analytical computations of excitation rates for solar oscillation modes to those of other solar-like oscillating stars to compare them with recent observations. Nume…
The `666' collaboration on OGLE transits: I. Accurate radius of the planets OGLE-TR-10b and OGLE-TR-56b with VLT deconvolution photometry
Frederic Pont, Claire Moutou, Michael Gillon +14
Transiting planets are essential to study the structure and evolution of extra-solar planets. For that purpose, it is important to measure precisely the radius of these planets. He…
3D Position Sensitive XeTPC for Dark Matter Search
J. Angle, E. Aprile, F. Arneodo +30
The technique to realize 3D position sensitivity in a two-phase xenon time projection chamber (XeTPC) for dark matter search is described. Results from a prototype detector (XENON3…
On the effect of overshooting as predicted by the modelling of the pre-main sequence evolution of a 2 solar-mass star
J. P. Marques, M. J. P. F. G. Monteiro, J. Fernandes
We discuss the effects of convective overshooting in the PMS evolution of intermediate mass stars, by analysing in detail the early evolution towards the main sequence of a 2 M_sun…
Report on the CoRoT Evolution and Seismic Tools Activity
M. K. J. P. F. G. Monteiro, Y. Lebreton, J. Montalban +24
We present the work undertaken by the Evolution and Seismic Tools Activity (ESTA) team of the CoRoT Seismology Working Group. We have focused on two main tasks: Task 1 - now finish…
