The BAyesian STellar Algorithm (BASTA): a fitting tool for stellar studies, asteroseismology, exoplanets, and Galactic archaeology [PDF]
We introduce the public version of the BAyesian STellar Algorithm (BASTA), an open-source code written in Python to determine stellar properties based on a set of astrophysical observables.

A Need to Revise Stellar Opacities from Asteroseismology of δ Scuti Stars [PDF]
We construct seismic models of the four double-mode radial δ Scuti stars adopting opacities from three databases: OPAL, OP, and OPLIB. The aim is to find the models that fit the observed frequencies of the two radial modes and have the effective ...

Pulsating stars and the Virtual Observatory
Virtual Observatory is one of the most used internet-based protocols in astronomy. It has become somewhat natural to find, manage, compare, visualize and download observations from very different archives of astronomical observations with no effort.

Tracing early stellar evolution with asteroseismology: pre-main sequence stars in NGC 2264
Asteroseismology has been proven to be a successful tool to unravel details of the internal structure for different types of stars in various stages of their main sequence and post-main sequence evolution.

Nonanalytic Relativistic r-Modes of Slowly Rotating Nonbarotropic Neutron Stars
We show that the r-modes of slowly rotating nonbarotropic neutron stars are described by nonanalytic functions of stellar angular velocity, which makes the perturbation techniques, used so far in the r-mode theoretical studies, inapplicable.

Solar-Like Oscillators in the Kepler Era: A Review
Many late-type stars across the Milky Way exhibit observable pulsations similar to our Sun that open up a window into stellar interiors. The NASA Kepler mission, a space-based photometric telescope, measured the micro-magnitude luminosity fluctuations ...

Revisiting the δ Scuti star FG Virginis using Kepler K2 and TESS data
FG Virginis is a δ Scuti variable star that was the target of several ground-based multisite photometric campaigns from 1992 to 2004. Over 75 pulsation frequencies were detected (Breger et al., Astron.

PLATO as it is: A legacy mission for Galactic archaeology
Deciphering the assembly history of the Milky Way is a formidable task, which becomes possible only if one can produce high‐resolution chrono‐chemo‐kinematical maps of the Galaxy. Data from large‐scale astrometric and spectroscopic surveys will soon provide us with a well‐defined view of the current chemo‐kinematical structure of the Milky Way, but it ...

The Dark Side of Neutron Stars
We review severe constraints on asymmetric bosonic dark matter based on observations of old neutron stars. Under certain conditions, dark matter particles in the form of asymmetric bosonic WIMPs can be effectively trapped onto nearby neutron stars, where they can rapidly thermalize and concentrate in the core of the star.
