Abstract

Asteroseismology is a powerful tool to study the structure and dynamics of the stellar interior and its evolution. The studies of thousands of stochastic, solar-like oscillators have led to numerous breakthroughs in our understanding of the stellar structure of main-sequence and red-giant stars. In particular, red-giant stars in binary systems allow us to draw critical experimental constraints that improve the theoretical modeling of how a star evolves throughout its lifetime. Improving these models is crucial to obtain more reliable stellar ages in the advanced phases of stellar evolution and characterize the giants hosting exoplanets.
