As reported in a contributed paper at this symposium, six “O VI”-type planetary nuclei are known to be pulsating variables. Through the techniques of asteroseismology, it should be possible to explore the interior structures of these stars, determine their masses and rotation rates, and measure the stellar evolutionary timescales through observations of changes in the pulsation periods.
