modeling of solar-type stars. The basic input physics used in the Geneva code as well as the …

The internal rotation of the Sun and its link to the solar Li and He surface abundances

P Eggenberger, G Buldgen, S Salmon, A Noels… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
The Sun serves as a natural reference for the modelling of the various physical processes at
work in stellar interiors. Helioseismology results, which inform us on the characterization of …

Sub-inertial gravity modes in the B8V star KIC 7760680 reveal moderate core overshooting and low vertical diffusive mixing

E Moravveji, RHD Townsend, C Aerts… - The Astrophysical …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Thus far, KIC 7760680 is the richest slowly pulsating B star, exhibiting 36 consecutive dipole
