We present a novel approach to model the nearby stars Alpha Cen A & B and Procyon A using asteroseismic and interferometric constraints. Using the VINCI instrument installed at the VLT Interferometer (VLTI), the angular diameters of the…
We investigate retrieval of the stellar rotation signal for Proxima Centauri. We make use of high-resolution spectra taken with uves and harps of Proxima Centauri over a 13-year period as well as photometric observations of Proxima Centauri…
At radio wavelengths, solar-type stars emit thermal free-free and gyroresonance, gyrosynchrotron, and impulsive coherent emission. Thermal free-free emission originates at layers where the optical depth is close to unit, while high…
Variations of frequency separations of low-degree p-modes are studied over the solar activity cycle. The separations studied are obtained from the frequencies of low-degree p-modes of the Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG). 10.7 cm…
We have studied solar cycle changes in the large frequency separations that can be observed in Birmingham Solar Oscillations Network (BiSON) data. The large frequency separation is often one of the first outputs from asteroseismic studies…
Frequency separations used to infer global properties of stars through asteroseismology can change depending on the strength and at what epoch of the stellar cycle the p-mode frequencies are measured. In the Sun these variations have been…
We use more than a decade of radial velocity measurements for $\alpha$ Cen A, B, and Proxima Centauri from HARPS, CHIRON, and UVES to identify the $M \sin i$ and orbital periods of planets that could have been detected if they existed. At…
We investigate the variability properties of main sequence stars in the first month of Kepler data, using a new astrophysically robust systematics correction, and find that 60% of stars are more variable then the active Sun. We define low…
The nature of the observed amplitude variability of several modes in the Delta Scuti star FG Vir is examined. In this star, three frequencies show strong amplitude and phase variations. In the power spectrum, these frequencies also show up…
We investigate the variation of high-degree mode frequencies as a local response to the active regions in two different phases of the solar activity cycle. We find that the correlation between frequency shifts and the surface magnetic…
Chromospheric swirls are considered to play a significant role in the dynamics and heating of the upper solar atmosphere. It is important to automatically detect and track them in chromospheric observations and determine their properties.…
The G9.5 giant eps Oph shows evidence of radial p-mode pulsations in both radial velocity and luminosity. We re-examine the observed frequencies in the photometry and radial velocities and find a best model fit to 18 of the 21 most…
In helioseismology, there is a well-known offset between observed and computed oscillation frequencies. This offset is known to arise from improper modeling of the near-surface layers of the Sun, and a similar effect must occur for models…
Using weakly non-linear theory of oscillation, we estimate the amplitudes of low frequency modes in a slowly pulsating B (SPB) star, taking account of the effects of rotation on the modes. Applying the formulation by Schenk et al (2002), we…
Context: Mode identification has remained a major obstacle in the interpretation of pulsation spectra in rapidly rotating stars. Aims: We would like to test mode identification methods and seismic diagnostics in rapidly rotating stars,…
Mixed modes seen in evolved stars carry information on their deeper layers that can place stringent constraints on their physics and on their global properties (mass, age, etc...). In this study, we present a method to identify and measure…
