A New Asteroseismic Diagram For Solar-type Stars

preprint2005arXivOpen access

Abstract

We propose a new kind of seismic diagram, based on the determination of the locations of sharp acoustic features inside a star. We show that by combining the information about the position of the base of the convective envelope or the second helium ionisation zone with a measure of the average large separation, it is possible to constrain the unknown parameters characterising the physical processes in the stellar interior. We demonstrate the application of this technique to the analysis of mock data for a CoRoT target star.
