Context. The space missions CoRoT and Kepler have provided photometric data of unprecedented quality for asteroseismology. A very rich oscillation pattern has been discovered for red giants, including mixed modes that are used to decipher the red giants’ interiors. They carry information on the radiative core of red giant stars and bring strong constraints on stellar evolution.
