Asteroseismology of the pre-main-sequence $\delta$ Scuti pulsator IP Persei

Abstract

A grid of theoretical models are computed to fit the 9 oscillation modes of IP Per detected earlier from a multi-site ground-based campaign. Fitting results show that there are two sets of theoretical models that could reproduce the observed frequencies more or less euqally well. In view of other available spectroscopic and photometric measurements, our best fitting stellar parameters for IP Per are ${\upsilon }_{\mathrm{e}}=91_{-3}^{+5}$ km s${}^{-1}$, $Z=0.009_{-0.001}^{+0.004}$, $M=1.64_{-0.04}^{+0.10}$ $M_{\odot }$, $T_{\mathrm{eff}}=7766_{-173}^{+348}$ K, $\log L/L_{\odot }=1.125_{-0.046}^{+0.094}$, $\log g=4.041_{-0.003}^{+0.008}$ dex, $R=2.022_{-0.018}^{+0.042}$ $R_{\odot }$, ${\tau }_0=8711_{-35}^{+68}$ s, age = $7.39_{-0.46}^{+0.76}$ Myr. Meanwhile, IP Per is found to be a pre-main sequence star where CN cycle has not yet reached the equilibrium state. At present fourteen percent of C12 have been turned into N14. Based on the best-fitting model, $f_6$ is identified as a radial mode, $f_1$ and $f_2$ as two dipole modes, and $f_3$, $f_4$, $f_5$, $f_7$, $f_8$, and $f_9$ as six quadrupole modes.
