Seismic Signatures of the 12C(α, γ)16O Reaction Rate in White Dwarf Models with Overshooting

We consider the combined effects that overshooting and the ^12 C( α , γ ) ^16 O reaction rate have on variable white dwarf (WD) stellar models. We find that carbon–oxygen (CO) WD models continue to yield pulsation signatures of the current experimental ^12 C( α , γ ) ^16 O reaction rate probability...
