SEISMIC FORWARD MODELLING
Definition:
Usingseismic (and non-seismic) constraints to determine theoptimal
set of parameters describing the theoretical model of a real star.
Typically: Mass, age, Y, Z, αMLT, αov, ... witha given physics (opacities, convection treatment, extra-mixing, ...)
Mass Age Y Best Model Limitations? Physically representative? Bias on determinations of fundamental parameters
USING INVERSIONS
Improving the use of seismic information:
1 By using seismic indicators (glitches, fine analysis of frequency
combinations,...).
2 By relating seismic information to structural corrections using a
less model-dependent approach.
Basu et al. 1996
Not subject to the limitations of forward modelling
Sufficient number of frequencies required
INVERSIONS OF INTEGRATED QUANTITIES
Using theSOLA method (Pijpers & Thompson 1994), we determine
integrated quantities.
Illustration for the mean density (Reese et al. 2012): ¯ ρ = Z R 0 4π ρ R3r 2dr (1) δνi νi = Z R 0 Kρ,Γi 1 δρ ρ dr + Z R 0 KΓi 1,ρ δΓ1 Γ1 dr (2) δ ¯ρinv ¯ ρ = X i ci δνi νi ≈ Z R 0 4π ρ R3ρ¯r 2δρ ρ dr (3)
GENERAL APPROACH (1)
But we are not limited in the choice of theintegrated quantity:
A = Z R 0 f (s1, s2, r )dr δA A = Z R 0 TAδs1 s1 dr + Z R 0 TA,crossδs2 s2 dr
With s1,s2 beingρ, c2, Γ1, u = Pρ, Y , ... defining custom-made targets functionsTA and TA,cross.
Combining approaches:

Prospects:
1 new indicators(helium, surface temperature gradient,...)
2 test on new generation of models

APPENDICES
Obtaining new kernels: From Masters et al. 1979:
Z R 0 Ksn,l1,s2δs1 s1 dr + Z R 0 Ksn,l2,s1δs2 s2 dr = Z R 0 Ksn,l3,s4δs3 s3 dr + Z R 0 Ksn,l4,s3δs4 s4 dr
Relate (s1, s2) to (s3, s4) (e.g. (ρ, Γ1) to (u0, Γ1) in the simplest cases) ⇒ new kernelsby solving a differential equation.
Ex: (u0, Γ1), (u0, Y ), (c2, Γ1), (c2, Y ), (Γ1, Y ), (P0, Γ1), (P0, Y ),
