Red giant seismology: Observations [PDF]
The CoRoT and Kepler missions provide us with thousands of red-giant light curves that allow a very precise asteroseismic study of these objects. Before CoRoT and Kepler, the red-giant oscillation patterns remained obscure.

Theoretical Uncertainties in Red Giant Branch Evolution: The Red Giant Branch Bump [PDF]
A Monte Carlo simulation exploring uncertainties in standard stellar evolution theory on the red giant branch of metal-poor globular clusters has been conducted.

Asteroseismology of red giants & galactic archaeology [PDF]
Red-giant stars are low- to intermediate-mass ($M \lesssim 10$~M$_{\odot}$) stars that have exhausted hydrogen in the core. These extended, cool and hence red stars are key targets for stellar evolution studies as well as galactic studies for several ...

Abstract In spite of the spectacular progress accomplished by stellar evolution theory, some simple questions remain unanswered. One of these questions is “Why do stars become red giants?”. Here we present a relatively simple analytical answer to this question.

The Aarhus red giants challenge [PDF]
Contact. The large quantity of high-quality asteroseismic data that have been obtained from space-based photometric missions and the accuracy of the resulting frequencies motivate a careful consideration of the accuracy of computed oscillation frequencies of stellar models, when applied as diagnostics of the model properties. Aims.

AbstractThe longest-known class of pulsating variable stars, namely pulsating red giants, is also the one that involves the most complex physical processes. Pulsation, mass loss, nuclear synthesis, mixing, atmospheric and circumstellar chemistry and dust formation all interrelate with one another and make both the observational studies and the ...

Gamma-ray flares from red giant/jet interactions in AGN [PDF]
Non-blazar AGN have been recently established as a class of gamma-ray sources. M87, a nearby representative of this class, show fast TeV variability on timescales of a few days. We suggest a scenario of flare gamma-ray emission in non-blazar AGN based on

Metallicities of Globular Clusters m3 and m5 from VI CCD Photometry [PDF]
To derive the metallicities of M3 and M5, we used the shape of red giant branch, horizontal branch magnitude, and red giant branch bump on the (V - I) - V color magnitude diagrams.

Carbon-deficient Red Giants [PDF]
Abstract Carbon-deficient red giants (CDRGs) are a rare class of peculiar red giants, also called “weak G-band” or “weak CH” stars. Their atmospheric compositions show depleted carbon, a low isotopic ratio, and an overabundance of nitrogen, indicating that the material at ...
