When a star evolves into a red giant, the enhanced coupling between core-based gravity modes and envelope-based pressure modes forms mixed modes, allowing its deep interior to be probed by asteroseismology. The ability to obtain information…

Magnetic activity changes the gravito-acoustic modes of solar-like stars and in particular their frequencies. There is an angular-degree dependence that is believed to be caused by the non-spherical nature of the magnetic activity in the…

We performed 2D and full 3D magnetohydrodynamic simulations of disk accretion to a rotating star with an aligned or misaligned dipole magnetic field. We investigated the rotational equilibrium state and derived from simulations the ratio…

Sub-photospheric acoustic resonators allow for the formation of standing p-mode oscillations by reflecting acoustic waves with frequencies below the acoustic cut-off frequency. We employ the Klein-Gordon equation with a piecewise acoustic…
