- Abstract
Aims. We investigate the asteroseismology of two solar-like targets as observed with the CoRoT satellite, with particular attention paid to the mode fitting. HD 181420 and HD 49933 are typical CoRoT solar-like targets (156 and 60-day runs). The low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of about $3{-}10$prevents us from unambiguously identifying the individual oscillation modes. In particular, convergence problems appear at the edges of the oscillation spectrum.

We report observations of the star HD 175726 that lasted for 27 days during the first short run of the mission. The time series reveals a high-activity signal and the power spectrum presents an excess due to solar-like oscillations with a low signal-to-noise ratio.

- Abstract
Context. The estimate of solar-like oscillation properties, such as their frequencies, amplitudes and lifetimes, is challenging because of their low amplitudes and will benefit from long and uninterrupted observing runs. The space telescope CoRoT allows us to obtain high-performance photometric data over a long and quasi continuous period. Among its main targets are stars for which we expect solar-like oscillations.

- Abstract
Context. CoRoT is a space telescope dedicated to stellar seismology and the search for extrasolar planets. The mission is led by the CNES in association with French laboratories and has a large international participation. The European Space Agency (ESA), Austria, Belgium, and Germany contribute to the payload, and Spain and Brazil contribute to the ground segment. Development of the spacecraft, which is based on a PROTEUS low earth orbit (LEO) recurrent platform, commenced in October 2000, and the satellite was launched on December 27, 2006.

- Abstract
Context. The F8 star HD 181906 (effective temperature ${\sim}6300$K) was observed for 156 days by the CoRoT satellite during the first long run in the direction of the galactic centre. Analysis of the data reveals a spectrum of solar-like acoustic oscillations. However, the faintness of the target (mv= 7.65) means the signal-to-noise (S/N) in the acoustic modes is quite low, and this low S/N leads to complications in the analysis.

11. On cross-spectrum capabilities for detecting stellar oscillation modes

Appourchaux, T., Leibacher, J., Boumier, P., Appourchaux, T., Leibacher, J., and Boumier, P.
- Abstract
Aims.Long-lived stellar oscillation modes are usually detected using Fourier transforms of time series of stellar radial velocities or brightness. It is commonly thought that one could use the cross spectrum of the two signals, or alternatively use the interleaved series of a single signal, to considerably improve the detection level by reducing the noise level.

- Abstract
The Global Oscillation at Low Frequencies (GOLF) experiment is a resonant scattering spectrophotometer on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SoHO) mission, originally designed to measure the disk-integrated solar oscillations of the Sun. This instrument was designed in a relative photometric mode involving both wings of the neutral sodium doublet (D1at λ5896 and D2at λ5890 Å). However, a “one-wing” photometric mode has been selected to ensure 100% continuity in the measurements after a problem in the polarization mechanisms. Thus the velocity is obtained from only two points on the same wing of the lines. This operating configuration imposes tighter constraints on the stability of the instrument with a higher sensitivity to instrumental variations. In this paper we discuss the evolution of the instrument during the last 8 years in space and the corrections applied to the measured counting rates due to known instrumental effects. We also describe a scaling procedure to obtain the variation of the Doppler velocity based on our knowledge of the sodium profile slope and we compare it to previous velocity estimations.

13. Inferred acoustic rates of solar pmodes from several helioseismic instruments

- Abstract
Acoustic rates of excitation of solar pmodes can be estimated from observations in order to place constraints on the modelling of the excitation process and the layers where it occurs in the star. For several reasons (including a poor signal to noise ratio and mode overlap), this estimation is difficult. In this work, we use three completely independent datasets to obtain robust estimates in the solar case for $\ell=1$modes. We also show that the height in the solar atmosphere where the modes are observed must be taken into account. Our three sets of results are shown to be consistent, particularly in the lower part of the p-mode spectrum (from 1.8 mHz to 2.8 mHz). At higher frequencies, the agreement is not as good, because of a larger dispersion of the measurements and also because of some systematic differences which might be due to observation height estimation or to a systematic influence of the noise.

- Abstract
With over 5 years of GOLF data having some 90% continuity, a new attempt has been made to search for possible solar gmodes. Statistical methods are used, based on the minimum of assumptions regarding the solar physics; namely that mode line-widths are small compared with the inverse of the observing time, and that modes are sought in the frequency interval 150 to 400 μHz. A number of simulations are carried out in order to understand the expected behaviour of a system consisting principally of a solar noise continuum overlaid with some weak sharp resonances. The method adopted is based on the FFT analysis of a time series with zero-padding by a factor of 5. One prominent resonance at 284.666 μHz coincides with a previous tentative assignment as one member of an $n=1$, $l=1$, p-mode multiplet. Components of two multiplets, previously tentatively identified as possible g-mode candidates from the GOLF data in 1998, continue to be found, although their statistical significance is shown to be insufficient, within the present assumption regarding the nature of the signal. An upper limit to the amplitude of any gmode present is calculated using two different statistical approaches, according to either the assumed absence (H0 hypothesis) or the assumed presence (H1 hypothesis) of a signal. The former yields a slightly lower limit of around 6 mm/s.

15. Application of Fano profiles to asymmetric resonances in helioseismology

Gabriel, A. H., Connerade, J.-P., Thiery, S., Boumier, P., Gabriel, A. H., Connerade, J.-P., Thiery, S., and Boumier, P.
- Abstract
Parallels are drawn between the asymmetric resonance profiles observed in global helioseismology and the Fano theory for autoionisation profiles in atomic spectroscopy. We show that the underlying physics of the interaction of a discrete resonance with a correlated continuum is common to both systems. The approximate formula normally used for fitting to profiles in helioseismology is essentially similar to that developed for atomic spectroscopy by Fano. We propose that the two systems are in reality equivalent. This proposition enables us to understand better which resonances in helioseismology will be correlated with each other and with which solar background "continua". We also question whether the two interacting influences of excitation sourcesand correlated solar background, are really separate independent processes.

- Abstract
Context. The CoRoT short runs give us the opportunity to observe a large variety of late-type stars through their solar-like oscillations. We report observations of the star HD?175726 that lasted for 27?days during the first short run of the mission. The time series reveals a high-activity signal and the power spectrum presents an excess due to solar-like oscillations with a low signal-to-noise ratio.Aims. Our aim is to identify the most efficient tools to extract as much information as possible from the power density spectrum.Methods. The most productive method appears to be the autocorrelation of the time series, calculated as the spectrum of the filtered spectrum. This method is efficient, very rapid computationally, and will be useful for the analysis of other targets, observed with CoRoT or with forthcoming missions such as Kepler and Plato.Results. The mean large separation has been measured to be 97.2?0.5???Hz, slightly below the expected value determined from solar scaling laws. We also show strong evidence for variation of the large separation with frequency. The bolometric mode amplitude is only 1.7?0.25?ppm for radial modes, which is 1.7?times less than expected. Due to the low signal-to-noise ratio, mode identification is not possible for the available data set of HD?175726.
