9 How we joined and where we work for CoRoT

10 Telescopes in work at Konkoly Observatory Photos by Miklós Rácz

11 Hungarian Asteroseismology Group Established: 2005 - Participants: Margit Paparó D.Sc. – project scientist Zoltán Kolláth D.Sc. – guest investigator of CoRoT Zoltán Csubry PhD student József Benkő PhD Sódorné Bognár Zsófia PhD student – employee by HAG László Szabados D.Sc. Róbert Szabó PhD László Molnár student – employee by HAG Krisztián Sárneczky – PhD student – employed for 5 month

12 Honorary members of HAG PISTA – Piszkéstető Student’s Astronomy ELTE University Eszter Bokor Gyöngyi Kerekes András Már László Molnár Emese Plachy Péter Pápics Nándor Sztankó

13 Fields of activities Photometric characterization of seismo targets Photometric characterization of seismo targets Time series photometry of exofields Time series photometry of exofields Guide for subfield selection: ROTSE-I Guide for subfield selection: ROTSE-I Successful applications: Successful applications: - Low amplitude variation of classical - Low amplitude variation of classical pulsating stars (GI Zoltán Kolláth) pulsating stars (GI Zoltán Kolláth) - Blazhko and double mode RR Lyrae stars - Blazhko and double mode RR Lyrae stars (headed by Merieme Chadid, France) (headed by Merieme Chadid, France)

14 Pulsating stars studied by COROT Radial region: long periods – exofields Radial region: long periods – exofields Non-radial region: main sequence – shorter periods Non-radial region: main sequence – shorter periods Joergen Christensen Dalsgaard

15 Simplest waves Made by Zoltán Kolláth

16 Targets of asteroseismology: existing oscillations amplified by 100000 (David B. Guenther)

17 Propogation of waves with different parameters White – l = 0 White – l = 0 Blue – l = 2 Blue – l = 2 Green – l = 20 Green – l = 20 Yellow – l = 25 Yellow – l = 25 Red – l = 75 Red – l = 75 Joergen Christensen-Dalsgaard

18 Method of inversion – asteroseismology Differential layer between Green and Yellow waves is investigated Many waves – many layers are studied Joergen Christensen-Dalsgaard

19 Data obtained for Theta Tucanae 6 weeks, three sites – single site 20 years earlier

20 First step of inversion finding the frequencies of waves 10 waves were identified 10 waves were identified Binary nature was discovered Binary nature was discovered Spectroscopically confirmed later Spectroscopically confirmed later

21 Photometry of seismo targets I Summer targets : Summer targets : 2005 2006 2005 2006 HD 181555 3 8 nights HD 181555 3 8 nights HD 180642 2 5 HD 180642 2 5 HD 170782 - 3 HD 170782 - 3

22 Photometry of seismo targets II Summer targets: Summer targets: 2005 2006 2005 2006 HD 172189 2 - nights HD 172189 2 - nights Winter targets: Winter targets: HD 44195 8 3 HD 44195 8 3 HD 44283 4 3 HD 44283 4 3

23 Photometry of seismo targets III Winter targets: Winter targets: 2006 2006 HD 50844 7 nights HD 50844 7 nights Other objects Other objects HD 48434 – Gamma Dor HD 48434 – Gamma Dor star star V920 Aql – RR Lyrae star V920 Aql – RR Lyrae star on the exofield on the exofield

24 Time series: Schmidt telescope (90/60 cm)

26 Time series on exofield of HD 49933+ HD 49434 selection on star density or well-known star in the field

27 More effective selection of subfields: ROTSE - I Posters on 8. CoRoT week: József M. Benkő and Zoltán Csubry ROTSE-I All Sky Survey as a Tool of ROTSE-I All Sky Survey as a Tool of Target Selection in the COROT Fields Target Selection in the COROT Fields Zoltán Csubry, Zoltán Kolláth MUFRAN – A scriptale data MUFRAN – A scriptale data processing tool for variable stars processing tool for variable stars

28 New variable stars in the COROT eyes

29 Made by Zoltán Kolláth Strange modes in stars COROT data will be analized here Cepheid horn: oscillations are the same as in the star

30 I gave a large scale view of the Hungarian activity in the COROT scientific preparatory work. My colleagues will give the details and colours of this picture. HAG wish you a pleasant Hungarian COROT Day! Thank you
