Stellar Physics and Galactic Archaeology using Asteroseismology in the 2020's
Abstract
Asteroseismology is the only observational tool in astronomy that can probe the interiors of stars, and is a benchmark method for deriving fundamental properties of stars and exoplanets. In this white paper, we describe key science questions and necessary facilities to continue the asteroseismology revolution into the 2020's.
