Automated extraction of oscillation parameters for Kepler observations of solar-type stars (2009)

Huber, Daniel, Stello, Dennis, Bedding, Timothy R., Chaplin, William J., Arentoft, Torben, Quirion, Pierre-Olivier, ...

The recent launch of the Kepler space telescope brings the opportunity to study oscillations systematically in large numbers of solar-like stars. In the framework of the asteroFLAG project, we have...

Determination of stellar radii from asteroseismic Data (2009)

Basu, Sarbani, Chaplin, William J., Elsworth, Yvonne

The NASA Kepler mission is designed to find planets through transits. Accurate and precise radii of the detected planets depend on knowing the radius of the host star accurately, which is difficult...

Fresh insights on the structure of the solar core (2009)

Basu, Sarbani, Chaplin, William J., Elsworth, Yvonne, New, Roger, Serenelli, Aldo M.

We present new results on the structure of the solar core, obtained with new sets of frequencies of solar low-degree p modes obtained from the BiSON network. We find that different methods used in...

The amplitude of solar oscillations using stellar techniques (2008)

Kjeldsen, Hans, Bedding, Timothy R., Arentoft, Torben, Butler, R. Paul, Dall, Thomas H., Karoff, Christoffer, ...

The amplitudes of solar-like oscillations depend on the excitation and damping, both of which are controlled by convection. Comparing observations with theory should therefore improve our...

Perspectives in Global Helioseismology, and the Road Ahead (2008)

Chaplin, William J., Basu, Sarbani

We review the impact of global helioseismology on key questions concerning the internal structure and dynamics of the Sun, and consider the exciting challenges the field faces as it enters a fourth...

Solar heavy element abundance: constraints from frequency separation ratios of low-degree p modes (2007)

Chaplin, William J., Serenelli, Aldo M., Basu, Sarbani, Elsworth, Yvonne, New, Roger, Verner, Graham A.

We use very precise frequencies of low-degree solar-oscillation modes measured from 4752 days of data collected by the Birmingham Solar-Oscillations Network (BiSON) to derive seismic information on...

Solar abundances and helioseismology: fine structure spacings and separation ratios of low-degree p modes (2006)

Basu, Sarbani, Chaplin, William J., Elsworth, Yvonne, New, Roger, Serenelli, Aldo M., Verner, Graham A.

We have used 4752 days of data collected by the Birmingham Solar-Oscillations Network (BiSON) to determine very precise oscillation frequencies of acoustic low-degree modes that probe the solar core....
