#### The additional-mode garden of RRab stars

Author: László Molnár
Space-based photometric missions revealed a surprising abundance of millimagnitude-level additional modes in RR Lyrae stars. The modes that appear in the modulated fundamental-mode (RRab) stars can be ordered into four major categ ... more

#### Asteroseismic modelling of the Binary HD 176465

Author: Benard Nsamba
The detection and analysis of oscillations in binary star systems is critical in understanding stellar structure and evolution. This is because such systems have the same initial chemical composition and age. Solar-like oscillati ... more

#### KIC 6220497: a new Algol-type eclipsing binary with multiperiodic Pulsations

Author: Jae Woo Lee
We present both binarity and pulsation of KIC 6220497 from the {\it Kepler} observations. The light curve synthesis shows that the eclipsing system is a semi-detached Algol with parameters of $q$ = 0.243$\pm$0.001, $i$ = 77.3$\pm$ ... more

#### 16CygA&B and Kepler Legacy values : Differences between the values of frequencies by different fitters

Author: Ian Roxburgh
The differences between the oscillation frequencies and uncertainty estimates of a star derived by different fitters can be large, sufficiently large so that, were one to find a stellar model that fitted one frequency set (\$\chi^ ... more

#### The Seismic Plus Portal

Author: Kevin Belkacem
The wealth of seismic data available from space borne missions (SOHO, CoRoT, Kepler, SDO,…), and from ground-based observations (GONG, Bison, ground-based large programmes…), is stimulating solar and stellar structure and evo ... more

#### Evolutionary states of red-giants stars: how to obtained them from “short” time series data from K2 and Tess

From its surface proper.es it can be difficult to determine whether a red-giant star is in its Helium-core-burning phase or only burning Hydrogen in a shell around an inert Helium core. Stars in either of these stage can have simi ... more

#### Forecasting the arrival of Coronal Mass Ejections: The Drag-Based Model

Author: Bojan Vrsnak
We present a new space weather online forecast-tool for predicting the arrival of Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejections (ICMEs). The forecast-tool is based on the “Drag-Based Model” (DBM), developed in the frame of the Europea ... more

#### The first quintuple system found with the K2 Mission

Author: Holger Lehmann
There were some 3000 binaries discovered in the Kepler main mission, and there is a growing collection of binaries that have been found to date in the 2-wheel extension of the Kepler mission, called ‘K2’. Among this impressive ... more

#### European Helio- and Asteroseismology Network - HELAS

Author: Markus Roth
The objective of the European Helio- and Asteroseismology Network (HELAS) is to coordinate the activities of the European activities in helio- and asteroseismology. HELAS was funded as Coordination Action under the European Uni ... more

#### Radial mode widths in red giant star spectra observed by Kepler

Author: Mathieu Vrard
The Kepler space mission has observed many solar-like pulsators, and helped to decipher their main characteristics (e.g: mass, radius, rotation). Most of the achievements recently obtained in that domain consist of the analysis of ... more
