Scientific paper

A new solution for ground-based Doppler asteroseismology is currently under development with SIAMOIS, a monolithic, compact seismometer, with no moving parts, based on a Mach Zehnder interferometer. The principles of the method will be presented with the results of the simulations of performance for photon noise-limited conditions. Installed at Dome C (75 deg South), a single instrument is needed, providing the unique possibility from the ground of continuous seismic observations over many weeks on the same target. As a test-bed instrument, prior to future developments on this exceptional astronomical site, a dedicated 40-cm telescope will feed the interferometer through an optical fiber. From the simulations, this association would make possible observations of the order of ten bright main sequence stars of F, G and K types, including α Cen A and B.
