What asteroseismology can do for exoplanets
Vincent Van Eylen, Mikkel N. Lund, Victor Silva Aguirre +12
We describe three useful applications of asteroseismology in the context of exoplanet science: (1) the detailed characterisation of exoplanet host stars; (2) the measurement of ste…
Exploiting the open clusters in the Kepler and CoRoT fields
Karsten Brogaard, Eric Sandquist, Jens Jessen-Hansen +2
The open clusters in the Kepler and CoRoT fields potentially provide tight constraints for tests of stellar models and observational methods because they allow a combination of com…
High-precision photometry by telescope defocussing. VI. WASP-24, WASP-25 and WASP-26
John Southworth, T. C. Hinse, M. Burgdorf +55
We present time-series photometric observations of thirteen transits in the planetary systems WASP-24, WASP-25 and WASP-26. All three systems have orbital obliquity measurements, W…
Old puzzle, new insights: a lithium rich giant quietly burning helium in its core
V. Silva Aguirre, G. R. Ruchti, S. Hekker +10
About 1% of giant stars have been shown to have large surface Li abundances, which is unexpected according to standard stellar evolution models. Several scenarios for lithium produ…
