29 May 2003 | | Journal: | Astron.J. 126 (2003) 1483 | | Subject: | astro-ph | | Abstract: | We obtained time-series spectroscopy of the G0 subgiant eta Boo in an attempt to confirm the solar-like oscillations reported by Kjeldsen et al. (1995). We recorded 1843 spectra over six consecutive nights with the Nordic Optical Telescope, which we used to measure equivalent widths of strong temperature-sensitive lines. We also measured velocities from 1989 spectra obtained through an iodine reference cell at Lick Observatory over 56 nights that were badly affected by weather. Our analysis also included velocity measurements published by Brown et al. (1997) and the original equivalent-width measurements by Kjeldsen et al. (1995). All four data sets show power excesses consistent with oscillations, although with a range of amplitudes that presumably reflects the stochastic nature of the excitation. The highest peaks show regularity with a large separation of Delta nu = 40.4 microHz and we identify 21 oscillation frequencies from the combined data. | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0305551 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
