  Asteroseismology may in principle be used to detect unresolved stellar binary
systems comprised of solar-type stars and/or red giants. This novel method
relies on the detection of the presence of two solar-like oscillation spectra
in the frequency spectrum of a single lightcurve. Here, we make predictions of
the numbers of systems that may be detectable in data already collected by the
NASA Kepler Mission. Our predictions, which are based upon TRILEGAL and BiSEPS
simulations of the Kepler field of view, indicate that as many as 200 or more
``asteroseismic binaries'' may be detectable in this manner. Most of these
binaries should be comprised of two He-core-burning red giants. Owing largely
to the limited numbers of targets with the requisite short-cadence Kepler data,
we expect only a small number of detected binaries containing solar-type stars.
The predicted yield of detections is sensitive to the assumed initial mass
ratio distribution of the binary components and therefore represents a
sensitive calibration of the much debated initial mass ratio distribution near
mass ratio unity.
