Precise Characterisation of Exoplanet-host Stars Parameters in connexion with the Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems Sylvie Vauclair Laboratoire d’Astrophysique de Toulouse-Tarbes, CNRS, Université de Toulouse, Institut universitaire de France Collaborations: Maria Eliana Escobar, Sylvie Théado, Noël Dolez, Gérard Vauclair and Corot team IAU symposium 276, The Astrophysics of Planetary Systems, Torini October 11 to 15, 2010
Asteroseismology of exoplanet-host stars: • - determination of masses, radii, ages, luminosities, temperatures, • evolutionary stages of the central stars • - Rotation period and inclination of rotation axis • Importance of chemical composition: metallicity and helium content, • links with the theories for planets formation and migration, and • accretion on the central star (lithium tests) SOPHIE OHP, T193 August 2007
Asteroseismology :ground based and space observations Same instruments as for the detection of exoplanets Ground: radial velocity methods HARPS (La Silla), SOPHIE (OHP), AAT, VLT, Keck, etc…future: SONG Space: photometric methods MOST, COROT, KEPLER…
Four exoplanets-host stars observed on large periods (8 or 9 consecutive nights) from the ground (solar-type stars all oscillate) : iota Hor, HARPS 2006 mu Arae, HARPS 2004 51 Peg, SOPHIE 2007 and 2010 94 Cet, HARPS 2007

Importance of double-diffusive mixing (thermohaline)
Consequences of accretion-inducedmixing: See Poster Sylvie Théado and Sylvie Vauclair The stellar lithium as a tracer for intense planetesimalbombardment radiative interior convective zone initial diffusion-induced profile (just before accretion) accretion-induced profile (just after the accretion event) -profile at 4 Myr -profile at 9 Myr -profile at 12 Myr
Conclusions: - Importance of asteroseismology for the determination of stellar parameters and inclination of rotation axis (~planetary plane ?) - Importance of the chemical composition and accretion processes in connexion with the scenarios of planetary formation and migration
