Abstract

A short presentation of the Nice OScillations Code (NOSC) and of its general properties is given here. We described the physics and the various numerical tools, that we have developed to check the validity and the internal consistency of the frequency calculations for a given model. We present different examples of adiabatic calculations, with an estimation of the achieved internal consistency and numerical accuracy.
