Miglio Open squares et al. 21, represent A&A ν n,l computed from l =, 1, 2adiabatic frequencies in a 1.2 M red giant model.

Conclusions l=2 Sun and solar-like stars, the amplitude of the periodic component depends on the envelope helium abundance (see e.g. Basu et al. 24; Houdek & Gough 27, and references therein). While CoRoT and Kepler observations will provide other targets and further reduce the uncertainty on the oscillation frequencies, a thorough study on the required precision in terms of seismic and non-seismic observational constraints, as well as and in terms of models, should be undertaken to aim for reliable seismic estimate of the envelope helium abundance in giants.
