==================================================== Title: "Non radial pulsations in Be and BeX stars" Dr. Juan Gutierrez GEPI, Observatoire de Paris-Meudon ===================================================== When: Friday, October 10th at 3 p.m. Where: 2nd Floor Seminar Room ===================================================== Abstract: In this talk I will present an overview of the analysis of the Be stars observed with the COROT satellite. Be stars are very fast-rotating B-type stars which may pulsate as beta Cephei or SPB stars. COROT has already observed 5 bright Be stars in the seismology fields and several tens fainter ones in the exoplanet fields with an unprecedented quality and from 20 to 150 days. Multiple frequencies are detected in the majority of the stars. Pulsations, outbursts, beating phenomenon, rotation, amplitude variability, etc. have been found in their light curves. I will also present an ongoing project in collaboration with Pablo Reig with the aim to search for nonradial pulsations in BeX stars using the Skinakas Observatory.
