Description
The unprecedented quality of the asteroseismic data of 16 Cyg A and B made available by NASA's Kepler telescope combined with their recently updated abundances from Takeda (2024) provides additional insights into their interior structures. This offers possibilities of constraining stellar core properties ( such as core sizes, abundances, and physics) paving the way for improving the robustness of the inferred stellar ages. Using 16 Cyg A and B, we employ and approach similar to Nsamba et al. (2022) to scale down a sample of models down to the ones that better represent the core of each star.
