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…
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…
DUETS: Setting expectations for asteroseismic binaries and binary products with synthetic populations
A. Mazzi, J. S. Thomsen, A. Miglio +5
Asteroseismology gives us the opportunity to better characterize binaries and their products, and shed light on their role in Galactic populations. We estimate occurrence rates, ma…
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…
