Projects
The TOS group as a whole focusses on the understanding of stellar structure and evolution of predominantly low-mass stars. This is done in a holistic way using different kinds of observations (spectroscopy, photometry, asteroseismology, astrometry and when available interferometry) and stellar models. In short we are on “the quest for the ultimate stellar model”.
SFB 881 ‘Milky Way galaxy: Asteroseismic stellar parameters of open cluster stars’
The goals of this project are the following: – an in-depth characterization of the three Kepler open clusters (NGC 6791, 6811 and 6819) to …
