delta Scuti variables are stars which exhibit periodic changes in their luminosity through radial and non-radial pulsations. Internally, these stars have relatively small convective cores, and convective overshoot can significantly affect…
In Delta Scuti star models, the calculated amplitude ratios and phase differences for multi-colour photometry exhibit a strong dependence on convection. These observables are tools for determination of the spherical harmonic degree of the…

Three dimensional rotatory modes of oscillations in a one-dimensional chain of rodlike charged particles or dust grains in a plasma are investigated. The dispersion characteristics of the modes are analyzed. The stability of different…
We continue the analysis of perturbations in vector inflation. The dominant theme of this paper is the long wavelength limit of perturbations in small fields inflation and the controversial issue of its linear stability. We explain the…
In cold Cepheids close to the red edge of the classical instability strip, a strong coupling between the stellar pulsations and the surface convective motions occurs. This coupling is by now poorly described by 1-D models of convection, the…
The present work explores the theoretical effects of rotation in calculating the period ratios of double-mode radial pulsating stars with special emphasis on high-amplitude delta Scuti stars (HADS). Diagrams showing these period ratios vs.…

Context: we study the convection-pulsation coupling that occurs in cold Cepheids close to the red edge of the classical instability strip. In these stars, the surface convective zone is supposed to stabilise the radial oscillations excited…

We review the numerical modelling of the nonlinear pulsations of classical variable stars with hydrocodes that include the effects of turbulent convection. Despite their simplicity these turbulent convective recipes appear to remove many of…

This article reviews the present knowledge on oscillating main sequence A/F stars that belong to more than one class of pulsator. Due to recent results of asteroseismic space missions, we now know of many Delta Scuti/Gamma Doradus stars.…
The phenomenon of convection is found in a wide variety of settings on different scales -- from applications in the cooling technology of laptops to heating water on a stove, and from the movement of ocean currents to describing…
Pulsators on and near the main sequence show period and amplitude changes that are too large to be the product of stellar evolution. The multiperiodic Delta Scuti stars are well suited to study these changes. This requires a very large…
Convection has been discussed in the field of accretion discs for several decades, both as a means of angular momentum transport and also because of its role in controlling discs' vertical structure via heat transport. If the gas is…
