Constraining the Properties of Delta Scuti Stars Using Spectroscopic Eclipsing Binary Systems
Many stars exhibit stellar pulsations, favoring them for asteroseismic analyses. Interpreting the oscillations requires some knowledge of the oscillation mode geometry (spherical degree, radial, and azimuthal orders). The δ Scuti stars (1.5-2.5 M sun) often show just one or few pulsation frequencies. Although this may promise a successful
