An intensity profile of the deconfined phase of a Majorana zero mode in a vortex lattice shows a pronounced periodic modulation in the x direction, parallel to the superflow, with bifurcation points at the vortex cores.

By studying the oscillations of a star’s surface, it is possible to extract information about stellar strata, age, and dynamics. Though one might guess that observation of surface oscillatory motions would be limited to our Sun, high-precision brightness measurements of distant stars, performed over many years, have enabled the field of asteroseismology. This comprehensive review covers the recent development of this field, the necessary blending of numerical simulation and data, and the way in which this new information enhances our understanding of stellar evolution.
