Ensemble Asteroseismology of Solar-Type Stars with the NASA Kepler Mission

W. J. Chaplin, H. Kjeldsen, J. Christensen-Dalsgaard +56

In addition to its search for extra-solar planets, the NASA Kepler Mission provides exquisite data on stellar oscillations. We report the detections of oscillations in 500 solartyp…

Predicting the detectability of oscillations in solar-type stars observed by Kepler

W. J. Chaplin, H. Kjeldsen, T. R. Bedding +49

Asteroseismology of solar-type stars has an important part to play in the exoplanet program of the NASA Kepler Mission. Precise and accurate inferences on the stellar properties th…

Sounding open clusters: asteroseismic constraints from Kepler on the properties of NGC 6791 and NGC 6819

Sarbani Basu, Frank Grundahl, Dennis Stello +22

We present initial results on some of the properties of open clusters NGC 6791 and NGC 6819 derived from asteroseismic data obtained by NASA's Kepler mission. In addition to estima…

A precise asteroseismic age and radius for the evolved Sun-like star KIC 11026764

T. S. Metcalfe, M. J. P. F. G. Monteiro, M. J. Thompson +55

The primary science goal of the Kepler Mission is to provide a census of exoplanets in the solar neighborhood, including the identification and characterization of habitable Earth-…

The asteroseismic potential of Kepler: first results for solar-type stars

W. J. Chaplin, T. Appourchaux, Y. Elsworth +105

We present preliminary asteroseismic results from Kepler on three G-type stars. The observations, made at one-minute cadence during the first 33.5d of science operations, reveal hi…

Detection of solar-like oscillations from Kepler photometry of the open cluster NGC 6819

Dennis Stello, Sarbani Basu, Hans Bruntt +49

Asteroseismology of stars in clusters has been a long-sought goal because the assumption of a common age, distance and initial chemical composition allows strong tests of the theor…
