Descripción
Synthetic horizontal branch (HB) stars in globular clusters, when computed on the basis of HB evolutionary tracks and pulsation theory constraints, furnish the best theoretical scenarios for exploration of the age-metallicity relation in globular clusters. Preliminary results are presented from recently computed synthetic models of the horizontal branch. The primary properties predicted for HB stars and RR Lyrae variables are presented and compared with selected observations of variables in the field and in globular clusters.

    Massive characterisation of subgiants and red giants with TESS (Kepler and Gaia)
    TESS serves as a formidable tool for investigating stellar variability. Nonetheless, the adaptation of methodologies employed in other space missions, such as Kepler, to deduce long stellar rotation periods or solar-like stellar pulsations has been a challenge. The advent of multiple sectors of data for most stars every two years with the extended

    Signature of the spin-down stalling in the stellar magnetic activity
    Once main-sequence (MS) solar-like stars transitioned from the saturated to the unsaturated regime in magnetic activity, their evolution was perceived as monotonic, with rotation rate and activity gradually decaying. However, Kepler revolutionized this perspective, showing that the unsaturated regime splits into different regimes. One transition

    Spectroscopy and asteroseismic modelling of the red giant binary system KIC 10841730
    Stellar modelling is crucial for understanding the structure and age of stars. The accuracy of a stellar model is limited by the constraints from observations and the theory behind the physical processes. Gravitationally bound stars of a binary system provide an excellent opportunity for a combined study, which provides strong constraints on the
