Asteroseismology and interferometry [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2007
Asteroseismology provides us with a unique opportunity to improve our understanding of stellar structure and evolution. Recent developments, including the first systematic studies of solar-like pulsators, have boosted the impact of this field of research within Astrophysics and have led to a significant increase in the size of the research community ...

Asteroseismology [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Today, 2015
Pulsations known as starquakes can provide precious glimpses into a star’s interior—and clues to how the star will live and die.

On the Detectability of Large-Scale Flows by Asteroseismology

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2020
Large-scale convective motions are an integral part of stellar interior dynamics and might play a relevant role in stellar dynamo processes. However, they are difficult to detect or characterize.

The potential of Shannon entropy to find the large separation of δ Scuti stars: The entropy spectrum

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
This study explores the use of Shannon entropy to find periodic patterns in the oscillation spectra of δ Scuti stars. We have developed a new diagnostic tool for detecting potential patterns that scans for minimal entropic states in the well-known ...

Saturn's Rings as a Seismograph to Probe Saturn's Internal Structure

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2020., 2020
As it has already done for Earth, the Sun, and the stars, seismology has the potential to radically change the way the interiors of giant planets are studied. In a sequence of events foreseen by only a few, observations of Saturn's rings by the Cassini spacecraft have rapidly broken ground on giant planet seismology. Gravity directly couples the planet'

A Mini-Review of Accreting Pulsating White Dwarfs

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
The discovery in 1998 of a pulsating white dwarf in the cataclysmic variable GW Lib opened up a new avenue of exploration in the asteroseismology of white dwarfs.

Helio- and asteroseismology [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2001
AbstractObservations of solar and stellar oscillations are providing detailed information about stellar interiors. In the case of the Sun the set of observed frequencies is sufficiently detailed and accurate that the properties of the solar interior, such as sound speed, density and internal rotation, can be inferred with substantial precision and ...

Pulsating stars harbouring planets

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Why bother with asteroseismology while studying exoplanets? There are several answers to this question. Asteroseismology and exoplanetary sciences have much in common and the synergy between the two opens up new aspects in both fields.

Asteroseismology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Asteroseismology is the determination of the interior structures of stars by using their oscillations as seismic waves. Simple explanations of the astrophysical background and some basic theoretical considerations needed in this rapidly evolving field are followed by introductions to the most important concepts and methods on the basis of example ...
