Scientific paper

A PEPSIOS spectrometer has been used to search for stellar photospheric oscillations with periods in the range from about 10 to 5000 s, and with velocity sensitivities down to about 1 m/s (rms) at the 1-sigma level. In the nine stars observed, no evidence is found for ocillations at the 3-sigma level. However, by using the same technique on the sun, the well-known 300-s oscillation was detected with an rms amplitude of 1.6 + or - 0.5 m/s for the integrated disk.
