摘要:

在太阳中,声学模式的特性对磁活动的变化很敏感。特别是,模式频率被观察到随着活动水平的增加而增加。由于CoRoT和开普勒,这种变化已经在其他太阳型恒星中发现,并编码了与其内部活动相关的变化信息。因此,前所未有的长期开普勒光度观测提供了一个独特的机会,通过星震学研究恒星活动。这项工作的目标是调查所观察到的模式频率变化的恒星参数的依赖关系,以及这些是否与活动相关的起源是一致的。我们选择了信噪比最高的太阳能型振荡器,总共75个目标。利用Santos等人(2018)确定的时间频率变化,我们研究了这些变化与基本恒星性质之间的关系。我们还比较了观测到的频率变化与色球和光度活动指数,这是只适用于一个子集的样本。我们发现,频移增加增加色球活动,这是一致的活动相关的起源所观察到的频移。频率偏移也被发现随着有效温度的增加而增加,这与Metcalfe等人(2007)对活性相关频率偏移的理论预测一致。快速旋转和年轻恒星的频率变化最大,这与那些比旋转较慢的恒星和老年恒星更活跃的恒星相一致。最后,我们发现的证据频率变化增加恒星金属丰度。

英文摘要:

In the Sun, the properties of acoustic modes are sensitive to changes in the magnetic activity. In particular, mode frequencies are observed to increase with increasing activity level. Thanks to CoRoT and Kepler, such variations have been found in other solar-type stars and encode information on the activity-related changes in their interiors. Thus, the unprecedented long-term Kepler photometric observations provide a unique opportunity to study stellar activity through asteroseismology. The goal of this work is to investigate the dependencies of the observed mode frequency variations on the stellar parameters and whether those are consistent with an activity-related origin. We select the solar-type oscillators with highest signal-to-noise ratio, in total 75 targets. Using the temporal frequency variations determined in Santos et al. (2018), we study the relation between those variations and the fundamental stellar properties. We also compare the observed frequency shifts with chromospheric and photometric activity indexes, which are only available for a subset of the sample. We find that frequency shifts increase with increasing chromospheric activity, which is consistent with an activity-related origin of the observed frequency shifts. Frequency shifts are also found to increase with effective temperature, which is in agreement with the theoretical predictions for the activity-related frequency shifts by Metcalfe et al. (2007). Frequency shifts are largest for fast rotating and young stars, which is consistent with those being more active than slower rotators and older stars. Finally, we find evidence for frequency shifts increasing with stellar metallicity.
