| contents | The Global Oscillations at Low Frequencies instrument aboard the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory has provided over two decades of continuous, high-precision data, enabling detailed measurements of the Sun's oscillation frequencies. These oscillations, analyzed through Doppler velocity shifts, offer invaluable insights into the Sun's internal structure and dynamics using the methods of helioseismology. This methodology has been extended beyond the Sun to the study of other stars, leveraging data from various space missions. Notably, NASA's Kepler mission, in operation from 2009 until 2018, observed over 500,000 stars, analyzing brightness variations over time and generating a vast database for asteroseismic studies. This investigation focuses on the solar-type star KIC 6106415, comparing its oscillation frequencies with those derived from GOLF data. By analyzing frequency patterns and mode lifetimes, we explore the similarities and differences in internal structures, stellar evolution, and magnetic activity cycles between KIC 6106415 and the Sun. Our analysis reveals that KIC 6106415 exhibits starspot numbers similar to the Sun, peaking at an estimated 175, which is consistent with its faster rotation rate. The data suggest that KIC 6106415 may have shorter magnetic activity cycles than the Sun, reinforcing the established link between stellar rotation and magnetic field generation in solar-type stars. |
