We have observed evidence for $p$-mode oscillations in the G0 IV star etaBoo (V = 2.68). This represents the first clear evidence of solar-like oscillations in a star other than the Sun. We used a new technique which measures fluctuations in the temperature of the star via their effect on the equivalent widths of the Balmer lines. The observations were obtained over six nights with the 2.5 m Nordic Optical Telescope on La Palma and consist of 12684 low-dispersion spectra. In the power spectrum of the equivalent-width measurements, we find an excess of power at frequencies around 850 microHz (period 20 minutes) which consists of a regular series of peaks with a spacing of $Delta u=40.3$ microHz. We identify thirteen oscillation modes, with frequency separations in agreement with theoretical expectations. Similar observations of the daytime sky show the five-minute solar oscillations at the expected frequencies.

We present a brief overview of the history of attempts to obtain a clear detection of solar-like oscillations in cluster stars, and discuss the results on the first clear detection, which was made by the Kepler Asteroseismic Science Consortium (KASC) Working Group 2.
The F5 subgiant Procyon A (alpha CMi, HR 2943) was observed with the Coralie fiber-fed echelle spectrograph on the 1.2-m Swiss telescope at La Silla in February 1999. The resulting 908 high-accuracy radial velocities exhibit a mean noise level in the
amplitude spectrum of 0.11 m s^-1 at high frequency. These measurements show significant excess in the power spectrum between 0.6-1.6 mHz with 0.60 m s^-1 peak amplitude. An average large spacing of 55.5 uHz has been determined and twenty-three individual frequencies have been identified.
Seismology of stars provides insight into the physical mechanisms taking place in their interior, with modes of oscillation probing different layers. Low-amplitude acoustic oscillations excited by turbulent convection were detected four decades ago i
n the Sun and more recently in low-mass main-sequence stars. Using data gathered by the Convection Rotation and Planetary Transits mission, we report here on the detection of solar-like oscillations in a massive star, V1449 Aql, which is a known large-amplitude (b Cephei) pulsator.
Asteroseismology of stellar clusters is potentially a powerful tool. The assumption of a common age, distance, and chemical composition provides constraints on each cluster member, which significantly improves the asteroseismic output. Driven by this
great potential, we carried out multi-site observations aimed at detecting solar-like oscillations in the red giant stars in the open cluster M67 (NGC 2682) (Stello et al. 2006). Here we present the first analysis of our data, which show evidence of excess power in the Fourier spectra, shifting to lower frequencies for more luminous stars, consistent with expectations from oscillations. If the observed power excesses were due to stellar oscillations, this result would show great prospects for asteroseismology in stellar clusters.
We have made a clear detection of excess power, providing strong evidence for solar-like oscillations in the G2 subgiant beta Hyi. We observed this star over five nights with the UCLES echelle spectrograph on the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope, usi
ng an iodine absorption cell as a velocity reference. The time series of 1196 velocity measurements shows an rms scatter of 3.30 m/s, and the mean noise level in the amplitude spectrum at frequencies above 0.5 mHz is 0.11 m/s. We see a clear excess of power centred at 1.0 mHz, with peak amplitudes of about 0.5 m/s, in agreement with expectations for this star. Fitting the asymptotic relation to the power spectrum indicates the most likely value for the large separation is 56.2 microHz, also in good agreement with the known properties of beta Hyi.
