Discovery of post-mass-transfer helium-burning red giants using asteroseismology

Yaguang Li, Timothy R. Bedding, Simon J. Murphy +14

A star expands to become a red giant when it has fused all the hydrogen in its core into helium. If the star is in a binary system, its envelope can overflow onto its companion or…
