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 …

Until the last few decades, investigations of stellar interiors had been restricted to theoretical
studies only constrained by observations of their global properties and external …

The internal properties of stars in the red-giant phase undergo significant changes on
relatively short timescales. Long near-uninterrupted high-precision photometric timeseries …

The review considers the modelling process for stellar convection rather than specific
astrophysical results. For achieving reasonable depth and length we deal with …

The Sun provides a critical benchmark for the general study of stellar structure and
evolution. Also, knowledge about the internal properties of the Sun is important for the …

Evolved cool stars of various masses are major cosmic engines, delivering substantial
mechanical and radiative feedback to the interstellar medium through strong stellar winds …

In asteroseismology, the surface effect refers to a disparity between the observed and the
modelled frequencies in stars with solar-like oscillations. It originates from improper …

Models of stellar structure and evolution are an indispensable tool in astrophysics, yet they
are known to incorrectly reproduce the outer convective layers of stars. In the first paper of …

Stellar evolution codes play a major role in present-day astrophysics, yet they share
common simplifications related to the outer layers of stars. We seek to improve on this by the …

Context. Accurate modelling of solar-like oscillators requires that modelled mode
frequencies are corrected for the systematic shift caused by improper modelling of the near …
