Descripción
Photometric observations made by the NASA Kepler Mission have led to a
dramatic increase in the number of main-sequence and subgiant stars with
detected solar-like oscillations. We present an ensemble asteroseismic
analysis of 76 solar-type stars. Using frequencies determined from the
Kepler time-series photometry, we have measured three asteroseismic
parameters that characterize the oscillations: the large frequency
separation (Δν), the small frequency separation between modes
of l = 0 and l = 2 (δν02), and the dimensionless
offset (epsilon). These measurements allow us to construct asteroseismic
diagrams, namely the so-called Christensen-Dalsgaard diagram of
δν02 versus Δν, and the recently
re-introduced epsilon diagram. We compare the Kepler results with
previously observed solar-type stars and with theoretical models. The
positions of stars in these diagrams places constraints on their masses
and ages. Additionally, we confirm the observational relationship
between epsilon and T eff that allows for the unambiguous
determination of radial order and should help resolve the problem of
mode identification in F stars.
