Forecasting Seismic Signatures of Stellar Magnetic Activity
arXiv:0709.2602 · doi:10.1063/1.2818984
Abstract
For the Sun, a tight correlation between various activity measures and oscillation frequencies is well documented. For other stars, we have abundant data on magnetic activity and its changes but not yet on its seismic signature. A prediction of the activity induced frequency changes in stars based on scaling the solar relations is presented. This seismic signature of the activity should be measurable in the data expected within few years.
