Helium diffusion during the evolution of solar-type stars : asteroseismic tests

arXiv:astro-ph/0510617

Abstract

The element diffusion, described by Michaud (1970), is now recognized to occur in all kinds of stars. We attempt to give evidence of signatures of helium diffusion below the convective zone by the way of asteroseismology.
