Abstract

Stars pulsate and their nature of their pulsations can provide a great deal of information about them including, for example, their masses, radii and ages. Oscillations in stellar brightness were first observed long ago, at the end of the sixteenth century. Since then, it has been established the phenomenon is seemingly a ubiquitous feature of stars and its study has been named asteroseismology.
