By the way, as for "hitting" the surface of the star to see how it responds, that's a lot like how solar-type oscillations are produced.
In this case, the connective motions "hit" the surface of the star and cause its oscillations. Can I regulate such "hits"? Thanks!

Dear all, I would like to take a Sun-like star, give it a posiive input of energy corresponding to about 1e-3% its binding energy (on a particular point of the surface but as a first approximation one can assume that the energy is distributed equally through the whole surface) and then let it evolve...

Dear all, I would like to take our Sun, give it an input of energy corresponding to about 1e-3% its binding energy and then let it evolve and analyse the pulsations. I.e. like we compress the Sun and then let it go. It will start pulsating. I would like to investigate how the pulsations evolve over ...
