Glitches in solar-like oscillating F-type stars: Theoretical signature of the base of the convective envelope on the ratios

M. Deal, M. -J. Goupil, M. S. Cunha +7

The transition between convective and radiative stellar regions is still not fully understood. The sharp variations in sound speed located in these transition regions give rise to…

On the stellar core physics of the 16 Cyg binary system: constraining the central hydrogen abundance using asteroseismology

Benard Nsamba, Margarida S. Cunha, Catarina I. S. A. Rocha +3

The unprecedented quality of the asteroseismic data of solar-type stars made available by space missions such as NASA's Kepler telescope are making it possible to explore stellar i…

PLATO Hare-and-Hounds exercise: Asteroseismic model fitting of main-sequence solar-like pulsators

M. S. Cunha, I. W. Roxburgh, V. Aguirre Børsen-Koch +19

Asteroseismology is a powerful tool to infer fundamental stellar properties. The use of these asteroseismic-inferred properties in a growing number of astrophysical contexts makes…

A 20-Second Cadence View of Solar-Type Stars and Their Planets with TESS: Asteroseismology of Solar Analogs and a Re-characterization of pi Men c

Daniel Huber, Timothy R. White, Travis S. Metcalfe +50

We present an analysis of the first 20-second cadence light curves obtained by the TESS space telescope during its extended mission. We find a precision improvement of 20-second da…

Asteroseismic modelling of solar-type stars: A deeper look at the treatment of initial helium abundance

Benard Nsamba, Nuno Moedas, Tiago L. Campante +7

Detailed understanding of stellar physics is essential towards a robust determination of stellar properties (e.g. radius, mass, and age). Among the vital input physics used in the…

The first view of Scuti and Doradus stars with the TESS mission

V. Antoci, M. S. Cunha, D. M. Bowman +63

We present the first asteroseismic results for Scuti and Doradus stars observed in Sectors 1 and 2 of the TESS mission. We utilise the 2-min cadence TESS data for a sample…
