Procyon A, a bright F5 IV-V Sun-like star, is justifiably regarded as a prime asteroseismological target. This star was repeatedly observed by MOST, a specialized microsatellite providing long-term, non-interrupted broadband photometry of…

We have made a clear detection of p-mode oscillations in the nearest solar-like G2V star $\alpha$ Cen A with the CORALIE spectrograph on the 1.2-m Swiss telescope at the ESO La Silla Observatory. We report the 5 nights of observation on…

Procyon A is a bright F5IV star in a binary system. Although the distance, mass and angular diameter of this star are all known with high precision, the exact evolutionary state is still unclear. Evolutionary tracks with different ages and…

We have carried out a multi-site campaign to measure oscillations in the F5 star Procyon A. We obtained high-precision velocity observations over more than three weeks with eleven telescopes, with almost continuous coverage for the central…

p-mode oscillations in solar-like stars are excited by the outer convection zone in these stars and reflected close to the surface. The p-modes are trapped inside an acoustic cavity, but the modes only stay trapped up to a given frequency…

We have observed evidence for $p$-mode oscillations in the G0 IV star etaBoo (V = 2.68). This represents the first clear evidence of solar-like oscillations in a star other than the Sun. We used a new technique which measures fluctuations…

A grid of stellar evolution models for Procyon A has been calculated. These models include the best physics available to us (including the latest opacities and equation of state) and are based on the revised astrometric mass of Girard et al…

We have made velocity observations of the star alpha Cen B from two sites, allowing us to identify 37 oscillation modes with l=0-3. Fitting to these modes gives the large and small frequency separations as a function of frequency. The mode…

Solar-like oscillations have been observed by Kepler and CoRoT in several solar-type stars, thereby providing a way to probe the stars using asteroseismology. We provide the mode frequencies of the oscillations of various stars required to…

An interesting asteroseismic target is the G9.5 IV solar-like star beta Aql. This is an ideal target for asteroseismic investigations, because precise astrometric measurements are available from Hipparcos that greatly help in constraining…

Spectroscopic high-resolution observations were performed with fiber-fed cross-dispersed echelle spectrographs in order to measure the fluctuations in radial velocities of a sample of bright stars that are likely to undergo solar-like…

Asteroseismology provides a unique tool for studying stellar interiors. Recently p modes have been detected on the bright solar-like star alpha Cen A thanks to high-precision radial-velocity measurements. However a better characterisation…

We have analyzed data from a multi-site campaign to observe oscillations in the F5 star Procyon. The data consist of high-precision velocities that we obtained over more than three weeks with eleven telescopes. A new method for adjusting…

Solar p-mode frequencies vary with solar activity. It is important to take this into account when comparing the frequencies observed from epochs that span different regions of the solar cycle. We present details of how to correct observed…

The variations of the frequencies of the low-degree acoustic oscillations in the Sun induced by magnetic activity show a dependence with radial order. The frequency shifts are observed to increase towards higher-order modes to reach a…

Oscillation mode frequencies of stars are typically treated as static for a given stellar model. However, in reality they can be perturbed by time varying sources such as magnetic fields and flows. We calculate the sensitivities of radial…

Over 2,000 stars were observed for one month with a high enough cadence in order to look for acoustic modes during the survey phase of the Kepler mission. Solar-like oscillations have been detected in about 540 stars. The question of why no…

The Microvariability and Oscillations of STars (MOST) photometric satellite has already undertaken more than 64 primary campaigns which include some clusters and has obtained observations of >850 secondary stars of which ~180 are variable.…

We report the most sensitive search yet made for solar-like oscillations. We observed the star alpha Cen A in Balmer-line equivalent widths over six nights with both the 3.9m Anglo-Australian Telescope and the ESO 3.6m telescope. We set an…

The F5 subgiant Procyon A (alpha CMi, HR 2943) was observed with the Coralie fiber-fed echelle spectrograph on the 1.2-m Swiss telescope at La Silla in February 1999. The resulting 908 high-accuracy radial velocities exhibit a mean noise…
