A Driving Mechanism for the Newly Discovered Class of Pulsating Subdwarf B Stars
Stéphane Charpinet,Gilles Fontaine,Pierre Brassard,Pierre Chayer,Forrest J. Rogers,Carlos A. Iglesias,B. Dorman,B. Dorman +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that pulsation modes are driven through an opacity bump due to a local enhancement of the iron abundance in the envelopes of sdB stars, which provides a natural explanation for the instabilities found in the newly discovered class of pulsating sdB star.
