Asteroseismology with SuperWASP
Barry Smalley (Keele University)
TL;DR
SuperWASP's extensive photometric archive enables detailed asteroseismic studies of millions of stars, showcasing its potential for stellar variability research.
Contribution
This paper presents the SuperWASP project's capabilities for asteroseismology, highlighting its large-scale data archive and high-precision photometry for stellar variability analysis.
Findings
SuperWASP archive contains over 420 billion measurements for 31 million stars.
Photometry precision exceeds 1% per observation in the 9 < V < 12 magnitude range.
The survey demonstrates strong potential for asteroseismic research.
Abstract
The highly successful SuperWASP planetary transit finding programme has surveyed a large fraction of both the northern and southern skies. There now exists in the its archive over 420 billion photometric measurements for more than 31 million stars. SuperWASP provides good quality photometry with a precision exceeding 1% per observation in the approximate magnitude range 9 < V < 12. The archive enables long-baseline, high-cadence studies of stellar variability to be undertaken. An overview of the SuperWASP project is presented, along with results which demonstrate the survey's asteroseismic capabilities.
