Advanced stellar physics and asteroseismology  

This course presents students with the theoretical underpinnings of asteroseismology, i.e. the study of stellar properties based on observations of stellar oscillations. By the end of the module students will be able to explain the nature of normal oscillation modes, and relate them to the characteristics of the internal structure of stars. Students will also appreciate the wider implications of asteroseismology on high-precision stellar physics, on studies of stellar populations, and on the characterisation of exoplanetary systems.
