Visibility of dipole modes for red giants observed with Kepler. The abscissa is the central frequency of the oscillations, which correlate closely with surface gravity shown at the top axis. Stars evolve from right to left in the diagram, corresponding roughly to the beginning of the red giant phase to the red giant luminosity bump [refSantiCassisi]. Each panel show stars in a different mass bracket increasing from top to bottom (indicated by the colour bar annotation  on the right). Mass is calculated from asteroseismic scaling relations[REF Kallinger20??], and has a formal uncertainty below 10\%[REF Miglio2012seeStello2013]. The solid black line shows the theoretical predicted visibility of suppressed dipole modes assuming a mode lifetime for radial modes of 20 days[REF Corsaro2015]. The fiducial dashed line separates the two branches of normal and suppressed stars.
