Abstract

We analyze 3yr of nearly continuous Kepler spacecraft short cadence observations of the pulsating subdwarf B (sdB) star KIC 3527751. We detect a total of 251 periodicities, most in the g-mode domain, but some where p-modes occur, confirming that KIC3527751 is a hybrid pulsator. We apply seismic tools to the periodicities to characterize the properties of KIC3527751. Techniques to identify modes include asymptotic period spacing relationships, frequency multiplets, and the separation of multiplet splittings. These techniques allow for 189 (75%) of the 251 periods to be associated with pulsation modes. Included in these are three sets of l=4 multiplets and possibly an l=9 multiplet. Period spacing sequences indicate l=1 and 2 overtone spacings of 266.4+/-0.2 and 153.2+/-0.2s, respectively. We also calculate reduced periods, from which we find evidence of trapped pulsations. Such mode trappings can be used to constrain the core/atmosphere transition layers. Interestingly, frequency multiplets in the g-mode region, which sample deep into the star, indicate a rotation period of 42.6+/-3.4days while p-mode multiplets, which sample the outer envelope, indicate a rotation period of 15.3+/-0.7days. We interpret this as differential rotation in the radial direction with the core rotating more slowly. This is the first example of differential rotation for a sdB star.
