Granulation signatures as seen by Kepler short-cadence data. II. A hierarchical route to inferring stellar radii from granulation

Jens R. Larsen, Mia S. Lundkvist, Guy R. Davies +1

Stellar granulation arises from near-surface convection and is imprinted in stellar photometric time series, yet links between granulation observables and fundamental stellar prope…

A Test of Substellar Evolutionary Models with High-Precision Ages from Asteroseismology and Gyrochronology for the Benchmark System HR 7672AB

Yaguang Li, Michael C. Liu, Trent J. Dupuy +35

We present high-precision measurements for HR~7672AB, composed of a Sun-like (G0V) star and an L~dwarf companion. Three nights of precise (70 cm/s) radial velocity (RV) asteroseism…

Granulation signatures as seen by Kepler short-cadence data. I. A decoupling between granulation and oscillation timescales for dwarfs

Jens R. Larsen, Mia S. Lundkvist, Martin B. Nielsen +3

Granulation is the observable signature of convection in envelopes of low-mass stars, forming the background in stellar power spectra. While well-studied in evolved giants, granula…

Asteroseismic investigation of HD 140283: The Methuselah star

M. S. Lundkvist, J. R. Larsen, Y. Li +12

HD 140283 is a well-studied metal-poor subgiant and a Gaia benchmark star, often used for testing stellar models due to its proximity, brightness, and low metallicity ([Fe/H] = -2.…

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…

Granulation signatures in 3D hydrodynamical simulations: evaluating background model performance using a Bayesian nested sampling framework

Jens R. Larsen, Mia S. Lundkvist, Guy R. Davies +5

Understanding the granulation background signal is of vital importance when interpreting the asteroseismic diagnostics of solar-like oscillators. Various descriptions exist in the…
