The APOKASC Catalog: An Asteroseismic and Spectroscopic Joint Survey of Targets in the Kepler Fields

Marc H. Pinsonneault, Yvonne Elsworth, Courtney Epstein +42

We present the first APOKASC catalog of spectroscopic and asteroseismic properties of 1916 red giants observed in the Kepler fields. The spectroscopic parameters provided from the…

Bayesian distances and extinctions for giants observed by Kepler and APOGEE

Thaíse S. Rodrigues, Léo Girardi, Andrea Miglio +30

We present a first determination of distances and extinctions for individual stars in the first release of the APOKASC catalogue, built from the joint efforts of the Apache Point O…

Early Results from APOKASC

Courtney Epstein

Asteroseismology and spectroscopy provide complementary constraints on the fundamental and chemical properties of stars. I describe the first results from APOKASC, a collaboration…

Testing the Asteroseismic Mass Scale Using Metal-Poor Stars Characterized with APOGEE and Kepler

Courtney R. Epstein, Yvonne P. Elsworth, Jennifer A. Johnson +29

Fundamental stellar properties, such as mass, radius, and age, can be inferred using asteroseismology. Cool stars with convective envelopes have turbulent motions that can stochast…
