=== Document description and Hints ===


Your proposal must address a work programme topic for this call for proposals.


**//This section of your proposal will be assessed only to the extent that it is relevant to that topic.// ** 


**1.1  Objectives ** 


·  Describe the specific objectives for the project[[:documentation:1|[1]]], which should be clear, measurable, realistic and achievable within the duration of the project. Objectives should be consistent with the expected exploitation and impact of the project (see section 2).


**1.2  Relation to the work programme ** 


·  Indicate the work programme topic to which your proposal relates, and explain how your proposal addresses the specific challenge and scope of that topic, as set out in the work programme.


**Notes** 


Exploit as much as possible the PLATO data. We want to add values.


We will use existing data (legacy data) from Corot and Kepler.


We learned from Corot and Kepler data information . Now we are approaching to have theoretical tools to prepare the interpretation of legacy data and hence for the prepartion of the PLATO.


**1.3   Concept and approach** 


·  Describe and explain the overall concept underpinning the project. Describe the main ideas, models or assumptions involved. Identify any trans-disciplinary considerations;


·  Describe the positioning of the project e.g. where it is situated in the spectrum from ‘idea to application’, or from ‘lab to market’. Refer to Technology Readiness Levels where relevant. (See [[:http:ec.europa.eu:research:participants:data:ref:h2020:wp:2014_2015:annexes:h2020-wp1415-annex-g-trl_en.pdf|General Annex G of the work programme]]);


and make them available for ·  Describe any national or international research and innovation activities which will be linked with the project, especially where the outputs from these will feed into the project;


·  Describe and explain the overall approach and methodology, distinguishing, as appropriate, activities indicated in the relevant section of the work programme, e.g. for research, demonstration, piloting, first market replication, etc;


·  Where relevant, describe how sex and/or gender analysis is taken into account in the project’s content.


//{{http://dfe.iaa.csic.es/persia/wiki/lib/plugins/fckg/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/lightbulb.gif?nolink&}}Sex and gender refer to biological characteristics and social/cultural factors respectively.  For guidance on methods of sex / gender analysis and the issues to be taken into account,  please refer to // //[[:http:ec.europa.eu:research:science-society:gendered-innovations:index_en.cfm:welcome|http://ec.europa.eu/research/science-society/gendered-innovations/index_en.cfm//]]// 


**1.4  Ambition** 


·  Describe the advance your proposal would provide beyond the state-of-the-art, and the extent the proposed work is ambitious. Your answer could refer to the ground-breaking nature of the objectives, concepts involved, issues and problems to be addressed, and approaches and methods to be used.


Massive and intermediate-mass stars are of primary importance in astrophysics. Massive stars are a key element for galaxy evolution as they modify their environment through radiatons and winds and supernovae explosions. They are also the progenitors of gammay ray bursts, neutron stars and black holes. The internal structure of intermediate-mass stars is similar to that of massive stars. In the context of stellar evolution theory, they are viewed as an ideal laboratory to study non-standard processes like rotation, magnetic field, turbulent mixing or atomic diffusion. These processes play an important role in the evolution of intermediate-mass and massive stars but they are highly non-linear and thus very difficult to model. As of today, models are confronted to the classical surface observables  on effective temperature, gravity, chemical abundance and more recently to interferometric observations. These surface constraints nevertheless leave many uncertainties on the internal transport processes and their influence on intermediate-mass and massive star evolution.


With CoRoT, Kepler and the prospect of Plato, stellar seismology is living a golden age. The quality and the quantity of the ultra-precise photometric space data enables to obtain unique constraints on the internal properties of stars (internal rotation, mixing at the edge of the convective core) as well as global parameters (mean density, age) with unprecedented accuracy. These new constraints, particularly those on the core rotation of sub-giants and red-giants, strongly question existing stellar evolution models (cit). Global seismic parameters are now a key part of exoplanet characterization as in Plato mission, while the capacity to determine accurate stellar population ages is crucial in the study of the Milky Way evolution. However these successes only concern solar-type pulsators with detectable oscillation that is main sequence 0.6 M < M <1.1 M stars together with sub-giant and red-giant stars. By decoding the oscillation spectra of rapidly rotating stars, our ambition is to pave the way for similar successes in the domain of intermediate-mass and massive stars.
