Relationship between low and high frequencies in Delta Scuti stars: Photometric Kepler and spectroscopic analyses of the rapid rotator KIC 8054146
M. Breger, L. Fossati, L. Balona +9
Two years of Kepler data of KIC 8054146 (delta Sct/gamma Dor hybrid) revealed 349 statistically significant frequencies between 0.54 and 191.36 c/d (6.3 microHz to 2.21 mHz). The 1…
Spin down of the core rotation in red giants

Verifying asteroseismically determined parameters of Kepler stars using hipparcos parallaxes: self-consistent stellar properties and distances
V. Silva Aguirre, L. Casagrande, S. Basu +24
Accurately determining the properties of stars is of prime importance for characterizing stellar populations in our Galaxy. The field of asteroseismology has been thought to be par…
Kepler-47: A Transiting Circumbinary Multi-Planet System
Jerome A. Orosz, William F. Welsh, Joshua A. Carter +36
We report the detection of Kepler-47, a system consisting of two planets orbiting around an eclipsing pair of stars. The inner and outer planets have radii 3.0 and 4.6 times that o…
Nonlinear asteroseismology of RR Lyrae
L. Molnár, Z. Kolláth, R. Szabó +4
The observations of the Kepler space telescope revealed that fundamental-mode RR Lyrae stars may show various radial overtones. The presence of multiple radial modes may allow us t…
The Neptune-Sized Circumbinary Planet Kepler-38b
Jerome A. Orosz, William F. Welsh, Joshua A. Carter +28
We discuss the discovery and characterization of the circumbinary planet Kepler-38b. The stellar binary is single-lined, with a period of 18.8 days, and consists of a moderately ev…
Calibrating Convective properties of Solar-like Stars in the Kepler Field of View
Ana Bonaca, Joel D. Tanner, Sarbani Basu +24
Stellar models generally use simple parametrizations to treat convection. The most widely used parametrization is the so-called "Mixing Length Theory" where the convective eddy siz…
Solar-like oscillations in red giants observed with \textit{Kepler}: influence of increased timespan on global oscillation parameters
S. Hekker, Y. Elsworth, B. Mosser +8
The length of the asteroseismic timeseries obtained from the Kepler satellite analysed here span 19 months. Kepler provides the longest continuous timeseries currently available, w…
Three ways to solve the orbit of KIC11558725: a 10 day beaming sdB+WD binary with a pulsating subdwarf
