Using the Two-dimensional Oscillation Program (TOP), we have explored the effects of rapid rotation on gravity modes in polytropic stars. Coriolis force, centrifugal distortion as well as compressible effects have been taken into account.…
We present complete 2D computations of g modes in distorted polytropic models of stars performed with the Two-dimensional Oscillation Program (TOP). We computed low-degree modes (l=1 modes with radial order n=-1...-14, and l=2,3 modes with…
Rossby modes are the oscillations in a rotating fluid, whose restoring force is the Coriolis force. They provide an additional diagnostic to understand the rotation of stars, which complicates asteroseismic modelling. We report 82…
Context. As of today, asteroseismology mainly allows us to probe the internal rotation of stars when modes are only weakly affected by rotation using perturbative methods. Such methods cannot be applied to rapidly rotating stars, which…
A new two dimensional non-perturbative code to compute accurate oscillation modes of rapidly rotating stars is presented. The 2D calculations fully take into account the centrifugal distorsion of the star while the non perturbative method…
The space-based Kepler mission provided four years of highly precise and almost uninterrupted photometry for hundreds of $\gamma$ Doradus stars and tens of SPB stars, finally allowing us to apply asteroseismology to these gravity mode…
CONTEXT. Gamma Doradus stars (hereafter gamma Dor stars) are known to exhibit gravity- and/or gravito-intertial modes that probe the inner stellar region near the convective core boundary. The non-equidistant spacing of the pulsation…
The CoRoT and Kepler data revolutionised our view on stellar pulsation. For massive stars, the space data revealed the simultaneous presence of low-amplitude low-order modes and dominant high-order gravity modes in several B-type pulsators.…
The asteroseismic modelling of period spacing patterns from gravito-inertial modes in stars with a convective core is a high-dimensional problem. We utilise the measured period spacing pattern of prograde dipole gravity modes (acquiring…

Radial and nonradial oscillations offer the opportunity to investigate the interior properties of stars. We use 2D stellar models and a 2D finite difference integration of the linearized pulsation equations to calculate non-radial…
Magnetic fields have been measured recently in the core of red giant stars thanks to their effects on stellar oscillation frequencies. The search for magnetic signatures in pulsating stars, such as $\gamma$ Doradus or Slowly Pulsation B…
Gamma Doradus stars present an incredibly rich pulsation spectra, with gravito-inertial modes, in some cases supplemented with delta Scuti-like pressure modes and in numerous cases with Rossby modes. The present paper aims at showing that,…
This paper explores the effect of rotation on the kappa-mechanism instability of slowly pulsating B stars. A new nonadiabatic code, that adopts the so-called `traditional approximation' to treat the Coriolis force, is used to investigate…
The effect of rotation on the Frequency Ratio Method (Moya et al. 2005) is examined. Its applicability to observed frequencies of rotating gamma Doradus stars is discussed taking into account the following aspects: the use of a perturbative…
We report our survey of $\gamma$\,Doradus stars from the 4-yr \textit{Kepler} mission. These stars pulsate mainly in g modes and r modes, showing period-spacing patterns in the amplitude spectra. The period-spacing patterns are sensitive to…
