Mining the Kepler Field: Atmospheric Parameters, Bolometric Corrections, and Luminosities
Diego Godoy-Rivera, Desmond H. Grossmann, Tyler Richey-Yowell +3
The ~ 200,000 stars observed by the Kepler mission have provided unprecedented constraints across astrophysics. With the advent of modern spectroscopic and photometric surveys, new…
Structure and Dynamics of the Sun's Interior Revealed by Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager
Alexander Kosovichev, Sarbani Basu, Yuto Bekki +43
High-resolution helioseismology observations with the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) onboard Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) provide a unique three-dimensional view of the…
Seismic differences between solar magnetic cycles 23 and 24 for low-degree modes
Rafael A. Garcia, Sylvain N. Breton, David Salabert +4
Solar magnetic activity follows regular cycles of about 11 years with an inversion of polarity in the poles every 22 years. This changing surface magnetism impacts the properties o…
Convection, rotation, and magnetic activity of solar-like stars from asteroseismology
Savita Mathur
During the last decade, our understanding of stellar physics and evolution has undergone a tremendous revolution thanks to asteroseismology. Space missions such as CoRoT, \kep, K2,…
APOKASC-3: The Third Joint Spectroscopic and Asteroseismic catalog for Evolved Stars in the Kepler Fields
Marc H. Pinsonneault, Joel C. Zinn, Jamie Tayar +38
In the third APOKASC catalog, we present data for the complete sample of 15,808 evolved stars with APOGEE spectroscopic parameters and Kepler asteroseismology. We used ten independ…
Kepler main-sequence solar-like stars: surface rotation and magnetic-activity evolution
A. R. G. Santos, D. Godoy-Rivera, A. J. Finley +4
While the mission's primary goal was focused on exoplanet detection and characterization, Kepler made and continues to make extraordinary advances in stellar physics. Stellar rotat…
