Asteroseismology of close binary stars | | Conny Aerts
; | | Date: |
16 Jan 2007 | | Abstract: | In this review paper, we summarise the goals of asteroseismic studies of close binary stars. We first briefly recall the basic principles of asteroseismology, and highlight how the binarity of a star can be an asset, but also a complication, for the interpretation of the stellar oscillations. We discuss a few sample studies of pulsations in close binaries and summarise some case studies. This leads us to conclude that asteroseismology of close binaries is a challenging field of research, but with large potential for the improvement of current stellar structure theory. Finally, we highlight the best observing strategy to make efficient progress in the near future. | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0701459 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
