The PLATO Science Calibration and Validation Plan: Targets for the First Long-pointing Field
Konstanze Zwintz, Conny Aerts, Andrew Tkachenko +56
In order to meet the science goals of the PLATO space mission, an extensive science calibration and validation plan has been designed. This paper describes this plan, as well as th…
Tracing the Milky Way: Calibrating chemical ages with high-precision Kepler data
G. Casali, J. Montalbàn, 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…
Age dissection of the Milky Way discs: red giants in the Kepler field
Andrea Miglio, Cristina Chiappini, Ted Mackereth +16
[Abridged] Ensemble studies of red-giant stars with exquisite asteroseismic, spectroscopic, and astrometric constraints offer a novel opportunity to recast and address long-standin…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Revisiting the Li-rich giant problem
A. R. Casey, G. Ruchti, T. Masseron +48
The discovery of lithium-rich giants contradicts expectations from canonical stellar evolution. Here we report on the serendipitous discovery of 20 Li-rich giants observed during t…
Constraining angular momentum transport processes in stellar interiors with red-giant stars in the open cluster NGC6819
N. Lagarde, A. Miglio, P. Eggenberger +2
Clusters are excellent test benches for verification and improvement of stellar evolution theory. The recent detection of solar-like oscillations in G-K giants in the open cluster…
Galactic archaeology: mapping and dating stellar populations with asteroseismology of red-giant stars
A. Miglio, C. Chiappini, T. Morel +11
Our understanding of how the Galaxy was formed and evolves is severely hampered by the lack of precise constraints on basic stellar properties such as distances, masses, and ages.…
