Asteroseismic models of the magnetic binary HD 156424

HD 156424 is a hot magnetic star in the Sco OB4 association and has previously been identified as part of a binary system. Spectropolarimetric results show that the companion star is also strongly magnetic, and thus this is a rare example of a doubly magnetic hot binary. In this work, we aim to present a more detailed analysis of Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite data including phase variation. We find short-term phase variation consistent with an oblique magnetic rotator, as well as long-term phase variation consistent with the third element proposed previously. We performed asteroseismic modelling of the star and determined that the pulsations are most likely associated with the primary of the system. Our best-fit models are universally young, and we find that the star is well fitted by a model with M=7.5 M_⊙.
