Abstract
The asymptotic description of low-degree stellar acoustic modes is ext ended to fourth order in inverse powers of the cyclical frequency. The accuracy of the asymptotic approximation is tested by comparing the p redicted values of the eigenfrequencies and the 'small frequency separ ations' with those calculated by solving the full equations governing the adiabatic oscillations of a standard solar model.
