Asteroseismology and planet finding: the ultra high precision photometry European road map
Abstract
Detection of many the eigenmodes of pulsations in stars of all types and of small planets orbiting around a large number of stars are foreseen in a very near future thanks to the efforts made by the European community, particularly in France. Indeed several such space missions as well as ground based facilities will be operating soon. Many other subjects in stellar physics and stellar environment will also benefit from these completely new observations.
