| Abstract: | Taking into account the helium and metal diffusion,we explore the possible evolutionary status with a seismic analysis,of the MOST (Microvariability and Oscillations of STars) target:the star e Eft.We adopt different input parameters to construct models to fit the available observational constraints in,e.g.,Teff,L,R and Fe/H].From the computation we obtain the average large spacings of ∈ Eri to be about 194±1 μHz.The age of the diffused models was found to be about 1 Gyr,which is younger than the age determined previously by models without diffusion.We found that the effect of pure helium diffusion on the internal structure of the young low-mass star is slight,but that of metal diffusion is obvious.The metal diffusion leads the models to have much higher temperature in the radiative interior,and,correspondingly a higher sound speed there,hence a larger frequency and spacings. |
