We have reviewed the observational data for ∊ Eri to derive our best estimates of luminosity, radius, temperature, composition, and age, as well as the uncertainties associated with each of these. These quantities are then used in stellar structure models to try to reproduce the global oscillation frequencies observed by Noyes et al. We find that we can reproduce the observed frequencies and splittings at least as well as the computations of Guenther and Demarque, yet for significantly different stellar parameters, most notably the age.
