Testing stellar evolution with asteroseismic inversions of a main sequence star harboring a small convective core

Earl P. Bellinger, Sarbani Basu, Saskia Hekker +1

The goal of stellar evolution theory is to predict the structure of stars throughout their lifetimes. Usually, these predictions can be assessed only indirectly, for example by com…
