Mass loss or transport mechanism is dominant in
influencing Prot depending on the mass of the star (M >12 <12Msol)
Determination of Prot versus distance from the ZAMS
One star -- many periods
Seismology : rotation
Diagnostic of transport processes inside stars
Depth dependence
W(r): 2 extreme cases:
* uniform rotation
* conservation of local
angular momentum
Reality is somewhere in-between depending on the mass
and age of the star
W(t) = J(t) / I(t)
Rotation profile inside a star is representative of redistribution of
angular momentum J from one stellar region to another :
•
•
•
caused by evolution: contractions and dilatations of stellar
regions: I(t)
caused by dynamical and thermal instabilities: meridional
circulation, differential rotation and turbulence: J(t)
caused by surface losses by stellar winds (B, thermal)
or surface gain by interaction with surrounding : J(t)
These processes cause chemical transport which in turn affects
the structure and evolution of the star
We want to identify
region of uniform rotation and
region of non differential rotation
(depth, latitude dependence)
inside the star (Wcore/Wsurf)
This depends on the type of star
Small and intermediate mass main sequence stars
Schematically :
• PMS stars: I varies a lot
•Small mass (FGK) stars –
: external convective zone
--> stellar wind - magnetic breaking
--> loss of angular momentum
--> slow rotators
•Intermediate and large mass (OBA) stars:
•no or thin external convective zone -->
no loss of angular momentum -->
intermediate and fast rotators
COROT will tell: a bit too simplified view !!!
Determination of rotation profile: seismic diagnostics
with forward and inversion techniques
Forward:
compute n from a model, given W and compare with nobs
Inversion:
compute <W>(r) from appropriate combinations of {nobs}
n0nlm = frequency for a given oscillation mode: n, l , m
• No rotation : n0nl a 2l+1 degenerate mode (m=-l, l)
n0
• Rotation breaks the azimuthal symetry , lifts the
degeneracy: 2l+1 modes (given n,l):

•Uniform in radiative region: transport of J : meridional

Efforts developed from ground: we must use multisite
observations, multitechniques,
i.e. use seismic and non seismic information
To built a seismic model (non unique solution)
(determine all unknown quasi at the same time)
• serves at improving -determination of stellar parameters ie ages
-test different physical prescriptions
• gives a model closer to reality for iteration and inversion techniques

We must distinguish fast, moderate and slow rotators :
e = W2 / (GM/ R3) centrifugal over gravitational
m = W/w
coriolis / oscillation period
- Slow (e, m <<1 ) : first order perturbation is enough
- Intermediate (e, m ~ < 0.5) : higher order contributions necessary
- Fast (e, m > 0.5) :
2D eq. models + nonperturbative osc. app.

• Rapid rotation: structure: oblatness, meridional

Extension of mixed inner region for rotating convective core ?
overshoot + rotation
will depend on the type of stars , on each star ?
Rotating convective core of A stars

then
Seismic models can be built
A triplet l=1 and some l=2 components yield :
• dov = 0.1 +_ 0.05
• Wcore/ Wsurf = 3.6
--> Core rotates faster than envelope (Ps = 140 d; surface 2 km/s)

 Seismic models can be built (non unique)
(v sin i 53-66 km/s; Prot =1,15 d)
• use mode excitation (nonadiabatic) information
• but must take into account effects of large W/w (Dintrans, Rieutord,2000)
P < 3 days second order pert. tech no longer valid
* GX Peg a d Scuti
(Goupil at al 1993)
spectroscopic binary  slow rotator Prot known
3 frequencies  nonuniform rotation (Wcore >> Wsurf)
 overshoot versus synchronisation of inner layers
 Asymetric multiplet (2nd order)
weak point: mode identification
* FG Vir (Breger et al …, many works over the last 10 y)
many frequencies , no standard model fit
slow rotator ? some l known but m ? Same for other cases
d Scuti stars
• Short periods, mixed modes (turn off of isochrones)
• Rapid rotators: location in HR diagram
visibility of modes, mode identification
mode excitation, selection
•
Time dependent convection
hence d Scuti stars require theoretical developements
in order to be ready for
Corot and d stars in clusters !
in progress :
• multisite, multi-techniques
• mode identification: more secure time dependent convection
(Dupret et al 04, Dazynska et al 04)
• include rotation: moderate (Meudon group) , fast (Rieutord, Lignieres)
Inversion for rotation
for d Scuti like oscillations
with mixed modes: access to Wc

First seismic models: a Cen, hBoo, Procyon
Slow rotators then classical techniques
with linear splittings:
• not yet the splittings !
Splitting large enough to be detected
•High frequency p-modes probe external layer rotation
Rotation forward and inversion possible
for high enough, evolved enough solar like oscillator stars

more sensitive to surface properties
and rotation more efficient in

Strength of baroclinicity grad P ^ grad r ?
Summary :
with seismology what we really want is
to detect and localize grad W
Fast rotation = oblateness, baroclinic, shellular assumption ?
Much better if we also have:
* surface Prot or a relation between Prot and stellar parameters
* Seismic model :
(is wanted by itself and wanted for rotation determination)
better use slow rotators if possible
otherwise must remove pollution by rotation
AND COROT data!
Must use all what we have :
seismic and nonseismic info complementary
forward and inverse info
Further work before june 2006:
• visibility, mode identification versus rotation
• validity of perturbation techniques, 2D calculations
• initial conditions:
rotation profile of slow rotators depends on its history
• latitudinal dependence (observations from ground already)
warning!: probably not possible to consider W only by itself:
relation with B, activity, convection ….
