Oscillation parameters of red giants observed in the CoRoT exofield
Abstract
The high-precision data obtained by the CoRoT (Convection, Rotation and planetary Transits) space mission allows firm detections of solar-like oscillations in a great variety of different stars. We derived reliable estimates of the frequency of maximum oscillation power νmax and the large frequency separation Δν of more than 300 cool red giants, that were observed by CoRoT. A detailed study of their seismic parameters provides an exclusive view of the population of the observed giants.
