A review of seismic observations of Kepler and K2-Observed sdBV stars
Abstract
This paper reviews recent seismic findings from Kepler and K2 data. Using three years of short cadence Kepler (K1) data, it is possible to examine time evolution of pulsations in an unprecedented way. While K2 observations are shorter, only three months, they are important as they are finding more sdBV stars than K1 did. Most importantly, K2 is discovering more p−mode pulsators with coverage not possible to get from the ground.
