Kepler Observations of the Asteroseismic Binary HD 176465

T. R. White, O. Benomar, V. Silva Aguirre +31

Binary star systems are important for understanding stellar structure and evolution, and are especially useful when oscillations can be detected and analysed with asteroseismology.…

Time variation of Kepler transits induced by stellar spots - a way to distinguish between prograde and retrograde motion. II. Application to KOIs

Tomer Holczer, Avi Shporer, Tsevi Mazeh +8

Mazeh, Holczer, and Shporer (2015) have presented an approach that can, in principle, use the derived transit timing variation (TTV) of some transiting planets observed by the $Kep…

Testing the recovery of stellar rotation signals from Kepler light curves using a blind hare-and-hounds exercise

S. Aigrain, J. Llama, T. Ceillier +10

We present the results of a blind exercise to test the recoverability of stellar rotation and differential rotation in Kepler light curves. The simulated light curves lasted 1000 d…

Calibrating Gyrochronology using Kepler Asteroseismic targets

Ruth Angus, Suzanne Aigrain, Daniel Foreman-Mackey +1

Among the available methods for dating stars, gyrochronology is a powerful one because it requires knowledge of only the star's mass and rotation period. Gyrochronology relations h…

Photometric Amplitude Distribution of Stellar Rotation of Kepler KOIs-Indication for Spin-Orbit Alignment of Cool Stars and High Obliquity for Hot Stars

Tsevi Mazeh, Hagai B. Perets, Amy McQuillan +1

The observed amplitude of the rotational photometric modulation of a star with spots should depend on the inclination of its rotational axis relative to our line of sight. Therefor…

Kepler and the seven dwarfs: detection of low-level day-timescale periodic photometric variations in white dwarfs

Dan Maoz, Tsevi Mazeh, Amy McQuillan

We make use of the high photometric precision of Kepler to search for periodic modulations among 14 normal (DA- and DB-type, likely non-magnetic) hot white dwarfs (WDs). In five, a…
