Limits on surface gravities of Kepler planet-candidate host stars from non-detection of solar-like oscillations

T. L. Campante, W. J. Chaplin, M. N. Lund +20

We present a novel method for estimating lower-limit surface gravities log g of Kepler targets whose data do not allow the detection of solar-like oscillations. The method is teste…

Benefits of multiple sites for asteroseismic detections

T. Arentoft, B. Tingley, J. Christensen-Dalsgaard +3

While Kepler has pushed the science of asteroseismology to limits unimaginable a decade ago, the need for asteroseismic studies of individual objects remains. This is primarily due…
