Additional information
This paper finds observational evidence for the predictions presented in Miglio et al. 2008 MNRAS 386 1487 about the seismic signature of convective cores in massive stars. Miglio's contribution was the computation of models including different assumptions for near-core mixing (instantaneous mixing vs. diffusive mixing). The comparison models vs. observations suggested the need for an additional, non-instantaneous mixing beyond the classical boundary of the convective core.
