Yearslong time series of high-precision brightness measurements have been assembled for
thousands of stars with telescopes operating in space. Such data have allowed astronomers …

We are entering a golden era for stellar physics driven by satellite and telescope
observations of unprecedented quality and scope. New insights on stellar evolution and …

PLATO 2.0 has recently been selected for ESA's M3 launch opportunity (2022/24). Providing
accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers, it …

The Sun and other stars are magnetic: magnetism pervades their interiors and affects their
evolution in a variety of ways. In the Sun, both the fields themselves and their influence on …

We present a catalog of stellar properties for a large sample of 6676 evolved stars with
Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment spectroscopic parameters and …

The determination of exoplanet properties and occurrence rates using Kepler data critically
depends on our knowledge of the fundamental properties (such as temperature, radius, and …

Stars lose a significant amount of angular momentum between birth and death, implying that
efficient processes transporting it from the core to the surface are active. Space …

Context. The space mission Kepler provides us with long and uninterrupted photometric time
series of red giants. We are now able to probe the rotational behaviour in their deep interiors …

The Kepler mission has provided exquisite data to perform an ensemble asteroseismic
analysis on evolved stars. In this work we systematically characterize solar-like oscillations …

Context. Understanding the origin and evolution of stellar angular momentum is one of the
major challenges of stellar physics. Aims. We present new models for the rotational …
