Theoretical Aspects of Asteroseismology
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 February 2017
Extract
Asteroseismology depends on the ability to determine frequencies for identified modes of stellar oscillation, and to use these frequencies to probe stellar interiors. Thus crucial aspects are the dependence of the frequencies on stellar properties, and the likelihood that modes are excited to observable amplitudes. I provide a brief overview of these issues and some remarks about how the frequencies may be analyzed, as a background for the more detailed presentations elsewhere in the proceedings.
