Evolutionary and seismic modeling of the delta Sct pulsators in eclipsing binary systems
Amadeusz Miszuda (University of Wrocław, Poland)
The main goal of my studies is to demonstrate how the binary evolution affects the present stage and pulsational properties of δ Scuti stars. To do so, I perform an in-depth analysis of all available photometric data and spectroscopic observations for studied binaries, KIC 10661783 and AB Cas. In order to find models describing the past evolution and current observational status of the analysed systems, I construct binary evolution MESA models that reproduce the orbital periods, masses and radii of binary systems. During my seminar I will focus on the properties of calculated evolutionary models which may have a significant impact in the future prospects of the δ Scuti analysis.
