Aims. We present detailed modelling of the exoplanet-host star μ Arae, using a new method for the asteroseismic analysis, and taking into account the new value recently derived for the Hipparcos parallax. The aim is to obtain precise parameters for this star and its internal structure, including constraints on the core overshooting. Methods. We computed new stellar models in a wider range than Bazot et al. (2005, A&A, 440, 615), with various chemical compositions ([Fe/H] and Y), with or without…

In the era of large-scale surveys of stars in the MilkyWay, stellar ages are crucial for studying the evolution of the Galaxy.But determining ages of field stars is notoriously difficult; therefore,
Observational techniques to measure solar and stellar oscillations
As said by Sir A. Eddington in 1925: Our telescopes may probe farther and farther into the depths of space. At first sight it would seem that the deep interior of the sun and stars is less accessible
