The surface of Betelgeuse has been roiling and pulsing for centuries, as long as humans have recorded its modulated luminosity. Dr. Jared Goldberg is a postdoctoral research fellow at the Center for Computational Astrophysics in the Flatiron Institute in New York City. Dr. Golberg has been developing computer models for Betelgeuse to help understand and interpret its oscillations over time. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-astrophysics-podcast-6738395/episodes/dr-jared-goldberg-does-betelgeuse-have-a-betelbuddy/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-astrophysics-podcast-6738395/dr-jared-goldberg-does-betelgeuse-have-a-betelbuddy.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
