Yearslong time series of high-precision brightness measurements have been assembled for
thousands of stars with telescopes operating in space. Such data have allowed astronomers …

The mass of a star is the most fundamental parameter for its structure, evolution, and final
fate. It is particularly important for any kind of stellar archaeology and characterization of …

Aims. We investigated the thermal and chemical structure in the near-core region of stars
with a convective core by means of gravito-inertial modes. We determined the probing …

We introduce the public version of the BAyesian STellar Algorithm (BASTA), an open-source
code written in Python to determine stellar properties based on a set of astrophysical …

Context. Stellar evolution models of B-type stars are still uncertain in terms of internal mixing
properties, notably in the area between the convective core and the radiative envelope. This …

The rapidly increasing number of delta Scuti stars with regular patterns among their
pulsation frequencies necessitates modelling tools to better understand the observations …

Aims. Previous high-precision studies of abundances of elements in solar twin stars are
extended to a wider metallicity range to see how the trends of element ratios with stellar age …

The Gaia M-dwarf gap is a significant underdensity of stars observed near MG= 10.2 in a
color–magnitude diagram for stars within 200 pc of the Sun. It has been proposed that the …

The treatment of chemical mixing in the radiative envelopes of intermediate-mass stars has
hardly been calibrated so far. Recent asteroseismic studies demonstrated that a constant …

Context. When modelling stars with masses higher than 1.2 M⊙ with no observed chemical
peculiarity, atomic diffusion is often neglected because, on its own, it causes unrealistic …
