Solar-like stars observed by Kepler: an incredible adventure
arXiv:1111.0994 · doi:10.1007/978-3-642-29630-7_33
Abstract
The NASA Kepler mission -in flight since March 2009- is producing an enormous number of high-quality continuous light curves. Now, and for the first time ever, we are able to do ensemble asteroseismology, i.e., to do an asteroseismic analysis with a statistically significant sub-sample of solar-like stars covering a wide range of stellar characteristics. In the present work, I highlight some of the most recent studies carried out using these data.
