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…
Not all nitrogen-rich field stars originate from globular clusters
Ellen I. Leitinger, Andrea Miglio, Josefina Montalbán +7
Globular clusters (GCs) are important tracers of the early Galactic assembly process, with part of their stars showing distinct chemical abundance patterns. When such stars are fou…
The impact of rotational mixing in intermediate-age star clusters with extended main-sequence turn-offs and extended red clumps
Lorenzo Martinelli, Andrea Miglio, Gaël Buldgen +6
The extended main-sequence turn-offs (eMSTOs) and extended red clumps (eRCs) observed in intermediate-age star clusters challenge the traditional understanding of clusters as simpl…
Attempting an accurate age estimate of the open cluster NGC 6633 using CoRoT and Gaia
K. Brogaard, A. Miglio, T. Arentoft +5
Asteroseismology of solar-like oscillations in giant stars allow the derivation of their masses and radii. For members of open clusters, this provides an age of the cluster that sh…
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…
Tracing the Milky Way: Calibrating chemical ages with high-precision Kepler data
G. Casali, J. Montalbà n, A. Miglio +10
Chemical clocks offer a powerful tool for estimating stellar ages from spectroscopic surveys. We present a new detailed spectroscopic analysis of 68 Kepler red giant stars to provi…
