Towards Asteroseismology of Long-Period Variable Subdwarf B Stars

2007 
Given the recent successes in the asteroseismological study of short-period variable subdwarf B stars, we investigate the asteroseismic potential of their long-period pulsating counterparts on the basis of both ground- and space-based photometry. We find the interpretation of the slow oscillators to be more challenging than that of the fast pulsators for a variety of reasons, however the first results obtained are encouraging and should pave the way for future observational efforts.
