| Abstract: |
Asteroseismology will soon place our understanding of the Sun into a
broader context by providing structural information for hundreds of
solar-type stars. In the past, ground-based data on solar-like
oscillations have emerged slowly enough that we could try to model one
star at a time. NASA's Kepler mission is now producing asteroseismic data
for hundreds of stars every few months, so a hands-on approach is a luxury
we can no longer afford. We have developed a stellar model-fitting
pipeline, which employs a parallel genetic algorithm to match observations
from the Kepler mission. We have validated the method using Sun-as-a-star
observations as well as data from a wide variety of solar-type stars. The
pipeline is now available through the Asteroseismic Modeling Portal (AMP),
a Science Gateway website tied to supercomputing resources on the
TeraGrid. In this talk, I provided an overview of AMP and presented some
of the first results from its automated analysis of both ground-based and
space-based asteroseismic data sets. |
