Sounding Stellar Cycles with Kepler

This research explores the role of asteroseismology in understanding stellar cycles, with a focus on solar-like stars observed through the Kepler mission. Key studies, including Böhm-Vitense (2007) and Mazumdar et al. (2014), reveal insights into mean density, convection zones, and the meridional circulations of stars, contributing to our understanding of their ages and structures. The findings highlight the significance of local asteroseismology in measuring vital characteristics of cool stars, particularly the 20 most sun-like stars discovered after the TESS launch in 2017.
