Asteroseismology of pulsating DA white dwarfs with fully evolutionary models
We present a new approach for asteroseismology of DA white dwarfs that consists in the employment of a large set of non-static, physically sound, fully evolutionary models representative of these stars.

White-Dwarf Asteroseismology With the Kepler Space Telescope
In the course of their evolution, white-dwarf stars go through at least one phase of variability in which the global pulsations they undergo allow astronomers to peer into their interiors, making it possible to shed light on their deep inner structure ...

Asteroseismology of red giants & galactic archaeology
Red-giant stars are low- to intermediate-mass ($M \lesssim 10$~M$_{\odot}$) stars that have exhausted hydrogen in the core. These extended, cool and hence red stars are key targets for stellar evolution studies as well as galactic studies for several ...

Fast and Automated Oscillation Frequency Extraction Using Bayesian Multi-Modality
Since the advent of CoRoT, and NASA Kepler and K2, the number of low- and intermediate-mass stars classified as pulsators has increased very rapidly with time, now accounting for several 104 targets.

Since the first observations of solar oscillations in 1960, helioseismology has probably been one of the most successful fields of astrophysics.

Fundamental Properties of Kepler Planet-Candidate Host Stars using Asteroseismology [PDF]
We have used asteroseismology to determine fundamental properties for 66 Kepler planet-candidate host stars, with typical uncertainties of 3% and 7% in radius and mass, respectively.

Asteroseismic Signature of a Large Active Region
Axisymmetric magnetic activity on the Sun and sun-like stars increases the frequencies of the modes of acoustic oscillation. However, it is unclear how a corotating patch of activity affects the oscillations, since such a perturbation is unsteady in the ...

PBjam: Asteroseismology for everyone
Asteroseismology is an exceptional tool for measuring fundamental stellar properties. The CoRoT, Kepler and TESS missions have observed thousands of stars that oscillate in a similar way as our Sun. This allows us to place tight constraints on their mass, radius and even age, which are important for understanding stellar structure and evolution ...

LS IV — 14°116 : A Time-Resolved Spectroscopic Study
LSIV-14 116 is a very unusual subdwarf B star. It pulsates non-radially with high-order g-modes, these pulsations are unexpected and unexplained, as the effective temperature is 6 000K hotter than the blue edge of the hot subdwarf g-mode instability ...
