Modeling Epsilon Eridani and Its Oscillations
Abstract
Models of the structure of the K2 V star Epsilon Eridani which are based on star luminosity, temperature, composition, age, and mixing-length parameter (alpha) are discussed. Comparisons are made with models proposed by Guenther and Demarque (1986) and Guenther (1987). Predicted oscillation frequencies are presented.
