In the present analysis of Procyon-A and Eta-Bootis, we use the local-wave
formalism which, despite its lack of precision inherent to any semi-analytical
method, uses directly the model profile without any modification when
calculating the acoustic mode eigenfrequencies. These two solar-like stars
present steep variations toward the center due to the convective core
stratification, and toward the surface due to the very thin convective zone.
Based on different boundary conditions, the frequencies obtained with this
formalism are different from that of the classical numerical calculation. We
point out that (1) the frequencies calculated with the local-wave formalism
seem to agree better with observational ones. All the frequencies detected with
a good confident level including those classified as 'noise' find an
identification, (2) some frequencies can be clearly identified here as
indications of the core limit.Comment: SOHO 18 / GONG 2006 / HELAS I Meetin
