Abstract

Description

We review recent progress in observations of ground-based oscillations. Excellent observations now exist for a few stars (alpha Cen A and B, mu Ara), while there is some controversy over others (Procyon, eta Boo). We have reached the stage where single-site observations are of limited value and where careful planning is needed to ensure the future of asteroseismology.
