Detection of Solar-like Oscillations and Granulation at Infrared Wavelengths using JWST

Angharad Weeks, Daniel Huber, Timothy R. Bedding +8

Stellar oscillations and granulation are key probes of stellar convection, one of the most poorly understood processes in stars. Stellar models predict strong wavelength dependence…

NGC 1901: A new benchmark cluster for gyrochronology in the TESS Southern continuous viewing zone

Mara Bernizzoni, Timothy R. Bedding, Prasad Mani +5

We use Gaia DR3 astrometry and TESS time-series photometry to study NGC 1901, a sparse open cluster in the TESS Southern continuous viewing zone, that has been neglected due to its…

The Pan-Pacific Planet Search -- IX. A menagerie of companions orbiting evolved stars

Robert A. Wittenmyer, Alexander Venner, Tyler Fairnington +22

We present resolutions as to the nature of six speculative candidate companions proposed in the final data release of the Pan-Pacific Planet Search, a 6-year radial-velocity survey…

TESS Observations of Stochastic Low-frequency Variability in Extreme Helium Stars

Courtney L. Crawford, C. Simon Jeffery, May G. Pedersen +4

Extreme helium stars (EHes) are low-mass hydrogen-deficient stars thought to be the products of double white dwarf mergers. Despite prolonged ground-based observations, there is no…

CHARA Interferometry and TESS Asteroseismology of the Core-Helium Burning Red Giant Cyg

Arnab Chowhan, Timothy R. Bedding, Daniel Huber +5

We present a detailed study of the secondary red clump star, Cyg, by combining long-baseline visible interferometry using the PAVO beam combiner at the CHARA Array with high-pr…

Asteroseismic Diagnostics for Red Giants with Kepler: Measuring epsilon and Small Frequency Separations in 16,000 Stars

Yingxiang Wang, Timothy R. Bedding, Yaguang Li +4

Asteroseismic studies of red giants have primarily relied on two global parameters: the large frequency separation (Dnu) and the frequency of maximum power (numax). Meanwhile, the…

Testing Red Clump Models with the Asteroseismic Binary KIC 10841730

Lea S. Schimak, Timothy R. Bedding, Courtney L. Crawford +9

Binaries in which both stars are pulsating are rare but extremely valuable. We present the first study of an asteroseismic binary system consisting of a core helium-burning red clu…

The highest mass Kepler red giants -- II. Spectroscopic parameters, the amplitude-activity relation, and unexpected halo orbits

Courtney L. Crawford, Yaguang Li, Daniel Huber +11

The high-mass (M2 \Msolar{}) Kepler red giant stars are less well-studied than their lower-mass counterparts. In the previous article, we presented a sample of 48 high-mass Kepl…

Asteroseismology of the G8 subgiant beta Aquilae with SONG-Tenerife, SONG-Australia and TESS

Hans Kjeldsen, Timothy R. Bedding, Yaguang Li +28

We present time-series radial velocities of the G8 subgiant star beta Aql obtained in 2022 and 2023 using SONG-Tenerife and, for the first time, SONG-Australia. We also analyse a s…

Testing the wavelength dependence of oscillations and granulation in red giants using Kepler and TESS

K. R. Sreenivas, Timothy R. Bedding, Daniel Huber +5

Stellar oscillations and granulation in red giants are both powered by convection. Studying the wavelength dependence of their amplitudes can provide useful insights on the driving…

Realistic Uncertainties for Fundamental Properties of Asteroseismic Red Giants and the Interplay Between Mixing Length, Metallicity and

Yaguang Li, Timothy R. Bedding, Daniel Huber +8

Asteroseismic modelling is a powerful way to derive stellar properties. However, the derived quantities are limited by built-in assumptions used in stellar models. This work presen…

The highest mass Kepler red giants -- I. Global asteroseismic parameters of 48 stars

Courtney L. Crawford, Timothy R. Bedding, Yaguang Li +6

When low- and intermediate-mass stars evolve off the main sequence, they expand and cool into the red giant stages of evolution, which include those associated with shell H burning…

A simple method to measure numax for asteroseismology: application to 16,000 oscillating Kepler red giants

K. R. Sreenivas, Timothy R. Bedding, Yaguang Li +4

The importance of numax (the frequency of maximum oscillation power) for asteroseismology has been demonstrated widely in the previous decade, especially for red giants. With the l…

Identifying 850 delta Scuti pulsators in a narrow Gaia colour range with TESS 10-minute full-frame images

Amelie K. Read, Timothy R. Bedding, Prasad Mani +7

We use TESS 10-minute Full Frame Images (Sectors 27-55) to study a sample of 1708 stars within 500 pc of the Sun that lie in a narrow colour range in the centre of the delta Scuti…
