I describe the first results from APOKASC, a collaboration between the Kepler asteroseismic science consortium (KASC) and the SDSS-III APOGEE survey. These include (1) the first test of asteroseismic scaling relationships in the metal-poor regime using halo and thick disk stars identified in the APOKASC sample; and (2) the calibration of spectroscopic parameters using precise asteroseismic measurements of surface gravity. I also highlight future research avenues that are made possible by this unique sample of thousands of well-characterized red giant stars.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-09-08T10:39:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "early results", "kepler asteroseismic science consortium", "precise asteroseismic measurements", "sdss-iii apogee survey", "thick disk stars" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1007/978-3-319-10993-0_15", "journal": "Astrophysics and Space Science Proceedings", "year": 2015, "volume": 39, "pages": 133 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015ASSP...39..133E" } } }
