Asteroseismology, Stellar Photometers
Scientific paper
The COROT instrument is a stellar photometer of very high accuracy, and long duration of observations. It has two channels optimised respectively for asteroseismology and terrestrial planet finding. Its photometric performances in terms of seismology of both channels are presented. Their consequences in terms of scientific return are discussed briefly. The asteroseismology field will observe a hundred of bright objects, half of them during 150 days, with a photometric accuracy of 0.6 to 2 ppm. The exoplanet field will also gather interesting data for seismology, with several ten thousand faint stars followed also during 150 days. Based on the target selection criteria for the global mission, and on the first results of the preparatory ground based programme, a preliminary choice of the field of view of the mission and a list of possible targets are presented.
