%When low- and intermediate-mass stars exhaust their hydrogen-core burning, they   %become red giants burning hydrogen in a thin shell surrounding the core of helium   %left by previous burning.  Like the Sun, red giants, giants  show a broad comb-like frequency spectrum of radial and non-radial acoustic oscillation modes excited by the turbulent surface convection \citep{De_Ridder_2009}.  The observed mode power across the spectrum has an overall bell-like  shape whose central frequency, \numax, decreases as a star expands during the
