Hot subdwarf B stars (sdBs) are the stripped cores of red giants located at the bluest extension of the horizontal branch. Several different kinds of pulsators are found among those stars. The mechanism that drives those pulsations is well…
We present an extensive and up-to-date catalog of Galactic Beta Cephei stars. This catalog is intended to give a comprehensive overview of observational characteristics of all known Beta Cephei stars. 93 stars could be confirmed to be Beta…
We present a comprehensive analysis of five eclipsing binary systems containing $\beta$ Cephei-type pulsating components. These systems were identified using the high-precision Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) photometry and…
We present here the results of our research for B-type pulsators in low metallicity environments, searching for short-term periodic variability in a large sample of B and Be stars in the Magellanic Clouds (MC), for which the fundamental…
Recent progress in the studies of pulsating variable stars is summarized from an observational point of view. A number of unexpected phenomena have been revealed in the case of pulsators in the classical instability strip. These discoveries…
Effects of stellar rotation on adiabatic oscillation frequencies of $\beta$ Cephei star are discussed. Methods to evaluate them are briefly described and some of the main results for four specific stars are presented.
The effects of opacities in driving pulsations and extending the pulsation instability region for B-type stars (SPB and $\beta$ Cep variables) have recently been explored by, e.g., Walczak et al. 2015, 2017, Daszynska-Daszkiewicz et al.…
We analyze data on pulsation amplitudes and phases for two $\beta$ Cephei stars, $\delta$ Cet and $\nu$ Eri. Str\"omgren photometry and radial velocity measurements are used simultaneously to obtain constraints on mean parameters of the…
The long-time photometric surveys in a few young open clusters allowed to identify the light variability in stars located on the HR diagram between the well defined $\delta$ Scuti variables and Slowly Pulsating B-type stars. Several objects…
We review the main results obtained from our seismic studies of B-type main sequence pulsators, based on the ground-based, MOST, Kepler and BRITE observations. Important constraints on stellar opacities, convective overshooting and rotation…
Pulsating stars in eclipsing binary systems play an important role in asteroseismology. The combination of their spectroscopic and photometric orbital solutions can be used to determine, or at least to constrain, the masses and radii of…
Eclipsing binaries with pulsating components are a distinct subclass of binaries, merging orbital and pulsational analyses. In recent years, that subclass led to the definition of a newly formed branch of tidal asteroseismology. While…
Classification of over 50000 TESS stars in sectors 1-18 has resulted in the detection of 766 pulsating main sequence B stars as well as over 5000 $\delta$ Scuti, 2300 $\gamma$ Doradus and 114 roAp candidates. It is found that a distinct…
Pulsation in beta Cep and SPB stars are driven by the kappa mechanism which depends critically on the metallicity. It has therefore been suggested that beta Cep and SPB stars should be rare in the Magellanic Clouds which have lower…
The stability of retrograde mixed modes in rotating B-type stars is investigated. It is found that these modes are susceptible to kappa-mechanism excitation, due to the iron opacity bump at log T ~ 5.3. The findings are discussed in the…
Eclipsing systems are essential objects for understanding the properties of stars and stellar systems. Eclipsing systems with pulsating components are furthermore advantageous because they provide accurate constraints on the component…
Zonal and meridional axisymmetric flows can deeply impact the rotational and chemical evolution of stars. Therefore, momentum exchanges between waves propagating in stars, differential rotation, and meridional circulation must be carefully…
The excitation of pulsation modes in beta Cephei and Slowly Pulsating B stars is known to be very sensitive to opacity changes in the stellar interior where T~2 10^5 K. In this region differences in opacity up to ~50% can be induced by the…
We present the results of a search for Galactic Beta Cephei stars, which are massive pulsating stars with both pressure modes and mixed modes. Thus, these stars can serve as benchmarks for seismological studies of the interiors of massive…
I review the properties of pulsators located on the upper main sequence in the HR diagram and discuss asteroseismic inferences on the internal structure of stars of spectral type A and B. Special attention is given to the problem of…
