Ensemble asteroseismology: An ensemble approach to detecting signatures of solar-like oscillations in K-dwarfs
William J. Chaplin, Tiago L. Campante, Mikkel N. Lund +5
Solar-like oscillations have to date been observed in hundreds of main-sequence and sub-giant stars. However, only a handful of detections have been made in K-type dwarfs, using gr…
Luminaries in the Sky: The TESS LEGACY sample of bright stars. II. In-depth seismic characterisation of 32 naked-eye stars in the PLATO LOP fields
E. Panetier, G. T. Hookway, E. Corsaro +13
The NASA TESS mission is conducting a nearly full-sky survey, enabling the photometric characterisation of millions of stars. The forthcoming ESA PLATO mission will provide long-du…
The Herculis system solved after nearly three centuries
Marcus L. Marcussen, Mikkel N. Lund, Frank Grundahl +11
Herculis is a bright, nearby quadruple system. Its brightest member, Her Aa, displays solar-like oscillations, establishing the system as a crucial benchmark for asterose…
The PLATO Science Calibration and Validation Plan: Targets for the First Long-pointing Field
Konstanze Zwintz, Conny Aerts, Andrew Tkachenko +56
In order to meet the science goals of the PLATO space mission, an extensive science calibration and validation plan has been designed. This paper describes this plan, as well as th…
Bolometric corrections of stellar oscillation mode amplitudes as observed by the PLATO mission. I. Planck-spectrum estimates
Mikkel N. Lund, Jérôme Ballot, William J. Chaplin
We derive bolometric correction functions for oscillation mode amplitudes observed by the different cameras of the ESA PLATO mission. Such corrections between bolometric (full ligh…
Optimising the global detection of solar-like oscillations. Tuning the frequency range for asteroseismic detection predictions and searches
Mikkel N. Lund, William J. Chaplin
A well-established method exists for predicting the detectability of solar-like oscillations and has been widely used to support target selection for space-based photometric missio…
