Statistical analyses of several Delta Scuti stars (FG Vir, 44 Tau, BL Cam and others) show that the photometrically observed frequencies cluster around the frequencies of the radial modes over many radial orders. The observed regularities…
The main obstacle in exploiting the frequency data of $\delta$ Sct stars is difficulty in mode identification. The $\delta$ Sct oscillation spectra, unlike those of the Sun or white dwarfs, do not exhibit very regular patterns. Thus, the…
