Asteroseismology of 36 Kepler subgiants. I.

The presence of mixed modes makes subgiants excellent targets for asteroseismology, providing a probe for the internal structure of stars. Here we study 36 Kepler subgiants with solar-like oscillations and report their oscillation mode parameters. We performed a so-called peakbagging exercise, i.e. estimating oscillation mode frequencies, linewidths, and amplitudes with a power spectrum model, fitted in the Bayesian framework and sampled with a Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm. The uncertainties of the mode frequencies have a median value of 0.180uHz. We obtained seismic parameters from the peakbagging, analysed their correlation with stellar parameters, and examined against scaling relations. The behaviour of seismic parameters (e.g. {Delta}{nu}, {nu}max, {epsilon}p) is in general consistent with theoretical predictions. We presented the observational p-g diagrams: {gamma}1-{Delta}u for early subgiants and {Delta}{Pi}1-{Delta}u for late subgiants, and demonstrate their capability to estimate stellar mass. We also found a logg dependence on the linewidths and a mass dependence on the oscillation amplitudes and the widths of oscillation excess. This sample will be valuable constraints for modelling stars and studying mode physics such as excitation and damping.
