Observational signatures of convectively driven waves in massive stars
We demonstrate observational evidence for the occurrence of convectively driven internal gravity waves (IGW) in young massive O-type stars observed with highprecision CoRoT space photometry. This evidence results from a comparison between velocity spectra based on 2D hydrodynamical simulations of IGW in a differentiallyrotating massive star and the observed spectra.We also show that the velocit...
متن کاملMassive Star Asteroseismology in Action
After highlighting the principle and power of asteroseismology for stellar physics, we briefly emphasize some recent progress in this research for various types of stars. We give an overview of high-precision high duty-cycle space photometry of OB-type stars. Further, we update the overview of seismic estimates of stellar parameters of OB dwarfs, with specific emphasis on convective core oversh...
متن کاملAsteroseismology of Exoplanets-host Stars
Studying the internal structure of exoplanets-host stars compared to that of similar stars without detected planets is particularly important for the understanding of planetary formation. The observed overmetallicity of stars around which planets have been detected may be a hint in that respect. In this framework, asteroseismic studies represent an excellent tool to determine the structural dif...
متن کاملAbundance analysis of prime B-type targets for asteroseismology
Context. The CoRoT satellite is collecting precise time-resolved photometry for tens of asteroseismology targets. To ensure a correct interpretation of the CoRoT data, the atmospheric parameters, chemical compositions, and rotational velocities of the stars must be determined. Aims. The main goal of the ground-based seismology support program for the CoRoT mission was to obtain photometric and ...
متن کاملAsteroseismology of Exoplanets-host Stars: a Link between the Two Scientific Programmes of Corot
Studying the internal structure of exoplanets-host stars compared to that of similar stars without detected planets is particularly important for the understanding of planetary formation. The observed overmetallicity of stars with planets may be a hint in that respect. Although it is obviously related to the physical processes which occur during the early phases of planetary formation, the orig...
