The hot limit of solar-like oscillations from Kepler photometry

Balona, Luis A.

Kepler short-cadence photometry of 2347 stars with effective temperatures in the range 6000 - 10000 K was used to search for the presence of solar-like oscillations. The aim is to establish the location of the hot end of the stochastic convective excitation mechanism and to what extent it may overlap the δ Scuti/γ Doradus instability region. A sim…
