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…

Pushing the boundaries of asteroseismic individual frequency modelling: unveiling two evolved very-low metallicity red giants

Jens R. Larsen, Jakob L. Rørsted, Victor Aguirre Børsen-Koch +21

Metal-poor stars are key to understanding the first stellar generation in the Galaxy. Asteroseismic characterisation of red giants has traditionally relied on global seismic parame…

Tracing back a second-generation star stripped from Terzan 5 by the Galactic bar

Stefano O. Souza, Marica Valentini, Cristina Chiappini +6

The Galactic bulge hosts the Milky Way's oldest stars, possibly coming from disrupted globular clusters (GCs) or the bulge's primordial building blocks, making these stars witnesse…

Red giants evolutionary status determination: the complete Kepler catalog

M. Vrard, M. H. Pinsonneault, Y. Elsworth +12

Evolved cool stars have three distinct evolutionary status: shell Hydrogen-burning (RGB), core Helium and shell Hydrogen burning (RC), and double shell burning (AGB). Asteroseismol…

The APO-K2 Catalog. II. Accurate Stellar Ages for Red Giant Branch Stars across the Milky Way

Jack T. Warfield, Joel C. Zinn, Jessica Schonhut-Stasik +11

We present stellar age determinations for 4661 red giant branch stars in the APO-K2 catalog, derived using mass estimates from K2 asteroseismology from the K2 Galactic Archaeology…

The evolution of the Milky Way's thin disc radial metallicity gradient with K2 asteroseismic ages

Emma Willett, Andrea Miglio, J. Ted Mackereth +8

The radial metallicity distribution of the Milky Way's disc is an important observational constraint for models of the formation and evolution of our Galaxy. It informs our underst…
