Description

With the launch of the Kepler spacecraft, long and uninterrupted time series have become available for a large variety of stars. These data are ideal for asteroseismic studies of the stars. As my PhD project I am studying how we can hope to use these data to infer properties on the differential rotation of solar-like star. I will discuss the current status of this project in addition to future planned work.
