Scientific paper

A programme directed towards the discovery in solar-like stars of small-amplitude, pressure-driven oscillations analogous to those observed of the Sun, and to search for planetary companions, has been pursued for several years, principally at the SAAO 1.9-m telescope. Here we describe a 0.9-m, spun epoxy flux collector of - 1-arcmin quality, a prototype towards larger, inexpensive flux collectors dedicated to a stellar seismology programme. This prototype has been used to gather preliminary stellar data. Key words: techniques: miscellaneous - telescopes - stars: oscillations.
