A complex asteroseismic study of the hybrid B-type pulsator Eridani

Abstract

We present results of comprehensive seismic modelling of the B-type main-sequence pulsator Eridani, which consists in parallel fitting of the pulsational frequencies and corresponding values of the complex, nonadiabatic parameter f, defined by the bolometric flux perturbation. This kind of studies, which we call complex asteroseismology, provides a unique test of stellar opacities. Our results indicate a preference for the OPAL data.
