A power-spectrum autocorrelation technique to detect global asteroseismic parameters

Solar and Stellar Astrophysics 2011-04-05 v1

Abstract

This article describes a moving-windowed autocorrelation technique which, when applied to an asteroseismic Fourier power spectrum, can be used to automatically detect the frequency of maximum p-mode power, large and small separations, mean p-mode linewidth, and constrain the stellar inclination angle and rotational splitting. The technique is illustrated using data from the CoRoT and Kepler space telescopes and tested using artificial data.
