Scientific paper

The MONS satellite, under consideration within the Danish small-satellite programme, aims at carrying out high-precision photometric observations of oscillations of a limited number of relatively bright stars. The primary goal is to study solar-like oscillation in other stars, of expected very low amplitude, but observation of other types of oscillating stars will also be carried out, to attempt to detect very weak modes that may be present. Frequencies and amplitudes of the modes will be used to study the internal properties of the stars and the mechanisms responsible for the oscillations. In this way, a better understanding will be sought of the structure and evolution of the stars, and of the physical processes that controls them. Here I summarize the properties of the relevant stellar oscillations and discuss how these properties may provide information about the stellar interiors.
