The Potential of Asteroseismology to Resolve the Blue Supergiant Problem

The Potential of Asteroseismology to Resolve the Blue Supergiant Problem

Despite major progress in our understanding of massive stars, concerning discrepancies still remain between observations and theory. Most notable are the numerous stars observed beyond the theoretical main sequence, an evolutionary phase expected to be short lived and hence sparsely populated. This...
