Determining the Inclination of the Rotation Axis of a Sun‐like Star
Open accessAbstract
Asteroseismology provides us with the possibility of determining the angle, i , between the direction of the rotation axis of a pulsating Sun-like star and the line of sight. A knowledge of i is important not just for obtaining improved stellar parameters, but also in order to determine the true masses of extrasolar planets detected from the radial velocity shifts of their central stars. By means of Monte Carlo simulations, we estimate the precision of the measurement of i and other stellar parameters. We find that the inclination angle can be retrieved accurately when i ≳ 30 ° for stars that rotate at least twice as fast as the Sun.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
