Asteroseismology with solar-like oscillations
  Almost 100 years ago Sir Arthur Eddington noted that the interiors of stars were inaccessible to observations. The advent of helio- and asteroseismology has completely changed this assessment. Helioseismology has provided very detailed information about the interior structure and dynamics of the Sun, highlighting remaining issues in our understanding of the solar interior. In the last decade extensive observations of stellar oscillations, in particular from space photometry, have provided very detailed information about the global and internal properties of stars. Here I provide an overview of these developments, including the remarkable insight that has been obtained on the properties of evolved stars.
