Stellar acoustic radii and ages from seismic inversion techniques

Determining stellar characteristics such as the radius, mass or age is crucial and asteroseismology is currently the most promising tool to provide these results accurately. We extend the SOLA inversion technique to new global characteristics in addition to the mean density [2] and apply our methodo...
