%For KEPLER, the sampling rate of the long-cadence mode restricts the sensitivity to frequencies below $\sim 280\mu$Hz (Nyquist frequency).
Rotation
is known to lift lifts the degeneracy between the non-radial modes of the same radial order n and degree l but different azimuthal order m.
In the case where If the rotation of the star is slow
enough so that enough, one can neglect the effects of the centrifugal force
can be neglected, and use a first-order perturbation
approximates well the effects of rotation on the mode frequencies. approximation.
Assuming a spherically symmetric rotation profile one can write
the frequency of the $(n,l,m)$ mode as
\begin{equation}
\nu_{n,l,m}=\nu_{n,l,0}+m\delta\nu_{n,l}
\label{e.split1}
\end{equation}
here for the frequency of the $(n,l,m)$ mode. Here $\delta\nu_{n,l}$ is the
\textit{rotational splitting}, rotational splitting, a weighted measure of the star's rotation rate
$\Omega(r)$ $\Omega(r)$.
\begin{equation}
\delta\nu_{n,l} = (2\pi)^{-1} \int_0^R K_{n,l}(r) \Omega(r) \,\hbox{d}r
\label{e.split2}
\end{equation}
The functions $K_{n,l}(r)$ are called rotational kernels of the modes and depend on the star's equilibrium structure and on the mode eigenfunctions.
Therefore rotational splittings are basically a weighted measure of the star’s rotation rate through the
rotational Kernels.
