Investigating the impact of Solar Fusion III reaction rates on helioseismic constraints and solar neutrino fluxes
T. Sandron, G. Buldgen, A. Noels +2
Nuclear reaction rates are crucial ingredients of solar and stellar models, they directly impact the duration of the life of stars and the energy they produce. In the solar case, t…
A data-driven estimate of the protosolar helium mass fraction
G. Buldgen, M. Kunitomo, A. Noels +3
The protosolar helium mass-fraction is a key ingredient of solar, planetary models and enrichment laws. However, the assumed values often rely on simplified descriptions of the tra…
Detailed theoretical analysis of core Helium-burning stars: Mixed mode patterns I. Impact of the He-flash discontinuity and of induced semi-convection
L. Panier, G. Buldgen, M. Matteuzzi +4
Space missions like CoRoT, Kepler, and TESS have made asteroseismology a powerful probe of stellar interiors. Red giants are key targets thanks to their rich mixed-mode oscillation…
Asteroseismic modelling of Kepler Legacy stars including lithium depletion
G. Buldgen, J. Bétrisey, C. Pezzotti +2
Context. The Kepler Legacy sample is, to this day, the sample of solar-like oscillators with the most exquisite asteroseismic data. In this work, we carry out a detailed modelling…
The impact of the transport of chemicals and electronic screening on helioseismic and neutrino observations in solar models
Morgan Deal, Gaël Buldgen, Louis Manchon +3
The transport of chemical elements in stellar interiors is one of the greatest sources of uncertainties of solar and stellar modelling. The Sun, with its exquisite spectroscopic, h…
The Future of Solar modelling: requirements for a new generation of solar models
Gael Buldgen, Gloria. Canocchi, Arthur. Le Saux +22
Helioseismology and solar modelling have enjoyed a golden era thanks to decades-long surveys from ground-based networks such as for example GONG, BiSON, IRIS and the SOHO and SDO s…
