Radius determination of solar-type stars using asteroseismology: What to expect from the Kepler mission (2009)

Stello, D., Chaplin, W. J., Bruntt, H., Creevey, O. L., García-Hernández, A., ...

For distant stars, as observed by the NASA Kepler satellite, parallax information is currently of fairly low quality and is not complete. This limits the precision with which the absolute sizes of...

Further progress on solar age calibration (2008)

Houdek, Günter, Gough, Douglas

We recalibrate a standard solar model seismologically to estimate the main-sequence age of the Sun. Our procedure differs from what we have done in the past by removing from the observed frequencies...

On the opacity change required to compensate for the revised solar composition (2008)

Christensen-Dalsgaard, Jørgen, Di Mauro, Maria Pia, Houdek, Günter, Pijpers, Frank

Recent revisions of the determination of the solar composition have resulted in solar models in marked disagreement with helioseismic inferences. The effect of the composition change on the model is...
