Asteroseismic ages for 17,000 stars in Kepler, K2 and TESS

Emma Willett, Andrea Miglio, Saniya Khan +9

The availability of asteroseismic constraints for tens of thousands of red giant (RG) stars has opened the door to robust age estimates, enabling time-resolved studies of different…

Extra modes in helium-core-burning stars probing an infra core cavity

B. Mosser, M. Takata, C. Pinçon +5

Dipole mixed modes observed in the oscillation pattern of red giant stars probe the radiative regions in the stellar core. Oscillation spectra of helium-core-burning stars sometime…

Physical interpretation of the oscillation spectrum on the RGB and AGB

G. Dréau, Y. Lebreton, B. Mosser +1

The high-frequency resolution of the four-year time series allows detailed study of seismic modes in luminous giants. Seismic observables help infer interior stru…

Advancing accuracy in age determinations of old-disk stars using an oscillating red giant in an eclipsing binary

J. S. Thomsen, A. Miglio, K. Brogaard +26

The study of resonant oscillation modes in low-mass red giant branch stars enables their ages to be inferred with exceptional (10%) precision, unlocking the possibility to re…

Pushing the boundaries of asteroseismic individual frequency modelling: unveiling two evolved very-low metallicity red giants

Jens R. Larsen, Jakob L. Rørsted, Victor Aguirre Børsen-Koch +21

Metal-poor stars are key to understanding the first stellar generation in the Galaxy. Asteroseismic characterisation of red giants has traditionally relied on global seismic parame…

Red giants evolutionary status determination: the complete Kepler catalog

M. Vrard, M. H. Pinsonneault, Y. Elsworth +12

Evolved cool stars have three distinct evolutionary status: shell Hydrogen-burning (RGB), core Helium and shell Hydrogen burning (RC), and double shell burning (AGB). Asteroseismol…

The APO-K2 Catalog. II. Accurate Stellar Ages for Red Giant Branch Stars across the Milky Way

Jack T. Warfield, Joel C. Zinn, Jessica Schonhut-Stasik +11

We present stellar age determinations for 4661 red giant branch stars in the APO-K2 catalog, derived using mass estimates from K2 asteroseismology from the K2 Galactic Archaeology…

Predicted asteroseismic detection yield for solar-like oscillating stars with PLATO

M. J. Goupil, C. Catala, R. Samadi +26

We determine the expected yield of detections of solar-like oscillations for the PLATO ESA mission. We used a formulation from the literature to calculate the probability of detect…

Locked differential rotation in core-helium burning red giants

B. Mosser, G. Dreau, C. Pincon +5

Oscillation modes of a mixed character are able to probe the inner region of evolved low-mass stars and offer access to a range of information, in particular, the mean core rotatio…

Seismic and spectroscopic analysis of 9 bright red giants observed by Kepler

H. R. Coelho, A. Miglio, T. Morel +21

Photometric time series gathered by space telescopes such as CoRoT and Kepler allow to detect solar-like oscillations in red-giant stars and to measure their global seismic constra…

K2 results for "young" -rich stars in the Galaxy

V. Grisoni, C. Chiappini, A. Miglio +11

The origin of apparently young -rich stars in the Galaxy is still a matter of debate in Galactic archaeology, whether they are genuinely young or might be products of binary evo…

Evidence of structural discontinuities in the inner core of red-giant stars

Mathieu Vrard, Margarida S. Cunha, Diego Bossini +3

Red giants are stars in the late stages of stellar evolution. Because they have exhausted the supply of hydrogen in their core, they burn the hydrogen in the surrounding shell. Onc…

Age dissection of the Milky Way discs: red giants in the Kepler field

Andrea Miglio, Cristina Chiappini, Ted Mackereth +16

[Abridged] Ensemble studies of red-giant stars with exquisite asteroseismic, spectroscopic, and astrometric constraints offer a novel opportunity to recast and address long-standin…

The CoRoT-GES Collaboration. Improving Red Giants spectroscopic surface gravity and abundances with asteroseismology

M. Valentini, C. Chiappini, A. Miglio +4

Nowadays large spectroscopic surveys, like the Gaia-ESO Survey (GES), provide unique stellar databases for better investigating the formation and evolution of our Galaxy. Great att…

Detection of solar-like oscillations in relics of the Milky Way: asteroseismology of K giants in M4 using data from the NASA K2 mission

A. Miglio, W. J. Chaplin, K. Brogaard +18

Asteroseismic constraints on K giants make it possible to infer radii, masses and ages of tens of thousands of field stars. Tests against independent estimates of these properties…

Period spacings in red giants I. Disentangling rotation and revealing core structure discontinuities

B. Mosser, M. Vrard, K. Belkacem +2

Asteroseismology allows us to probe the physical conditions inside the core of red giant stars. This relies on the properties of the global oscillations with a mixed character that…
