Constraining the model-based uncertainties of asteroseismic magnetic field measurements in red giants
L. Buchele, L. Bugnet, N. Muntean +1
Magnetic fields inside red giants are measured using shifts to the oscillation frequencies. However, in the asymptotic framework, converting a frequency shift into a radial magneti…
The sensitivity and behaviour of the curvature in the échelle diagram of red-giant stars
S. Hekker, Y. Elsworth, S. Basu +5
In the convective envelopes of relatively cool stars, oscillations are excited by turbulent convection. In these so-called solar-like oscillators, radial oscillation modes appear a…
Exploring Mixing Thresholds in Asteroseismic Stellar Evolution Models
Lynn Buchele
Inferences from observations clearly show that mixing in stars extends beyond the convective boundaries defined by mixing length theory. This triggered the proposal of a variety of…
Linearity of Structure Kernels in Main-sequence and Subgiant Solar-like Oscillators
Lynn Buchele, Earl P. Bellinger, Saskia Hekker +1
Seismic structure inversions have been used to study the solar interior for decades. With the high-precision frequencies obtained using data from the Kepler mission, it has now bec…
Asteroseismic Structure Inversions of Main-Sequence Solar-like Oscillators with Convective Cores
Lynn Buchele, Earl P. Bellinger, Saskia Hekker +1
Asteroseismic inferences of main-sequence solar-like oscillators often rely on best-fit models. However, these models cannot fully reproduce the observed mode frequencies, suggesti…
