Accurate modelling of solar-like oscillators requires that modelled mode frequencies are corrected for the systematic shift caused by improper modelling of the near-surface layers, known as the surface effect. ... We investigate how much…

Stellar metallicity strongly correlates with the presence of planets and their properties. To check for new correlations between stars and the existence of an orbiting planet, we determine precise stellar parameters for a sample of…
Asteroseismology is our only means of measuring stellar rotation in their interiors, rather than at their surfaces. Some techniques for measurements of this kind -- "rotational inversions" -- require the shapes of linear response kernels…
