Query: Seismic constraints on the internal structure of evolved stars: From
  high-luminosity RGB to AGB stars   The space-borne missions CoRoT and Kepler opened up a new opportunity for
better understanding stellar evolution by probing stellar interiors with
unrivalled high-precision photometric data. Kepler has observed stellar
oscillation for four years, which gave access to excellent frequency resolution
that enables deciphering the oscillation spectrum of evolved red giant branch
and asymptotic giant branch stars. The internal structure of stars in the upper
parts of the red and asymptotic giant branches is poorly constrained, which
makes the distinction between red and asymptotic giants difficult. We perform a
thorough seismic analysis to address the physical conditions inside these stars
and to distinguish them. We studied the oscillation mode properties of about
2.000 evolved giants in a model described by the asymptotic pressure-mode
pattern of red giants, which includes the signature of the helium
second-ionisation zone. We extracted the mode properties up to the degree l = 3
and investigated their dependence on stellar mass, metallicity, and
evolutionary status. We identify a clear difference in the signature of the
helium second-ionisation zone between red and asymptotic giants. We also detect
a clear shortage of the energy of l = 1 modes after the core-He-burning phase.
Furthermore, we note that the mode damping observed on the asymptotic giant
branch is similar to that observed on the red giant branch. We highlight that
the signature of the helium second-ionisation zone varies with stellar
evolution. This provides us with a physical basis for distinguishing red giant
branch stars from asymptotic giants. Here, our investigation of stellar
oscillations allows us to constrain the physical processes and the key events
that occur during the advanced stages of stellar evolution, with emphasis on
the ascent along the asymptotic giant branch, including the asymptotic giant
branch bump.
