We present new spectroscopic and photometric time series observations of the delta Scuti star FG~Vir. We detect the oscillations via changes in the equivalent widths of hydrogen and metal absorption lines. From the ratios between spectroscopic and photometric amplitudes, we assign l values to the eight strongest oscillation modes. In particular, we identify two radial modes (l =0) and find that the main pulsation mode (147 microHz) has l = 1. One of the radial modes (at 140 microHz) is the fundamental, implying that two modes with lower frequencies are g-modes. For the radial modes, we compare frequencies with those calculated from a scaled delta Scuti star model and derive a density 0.1645 +/- 0.0005 rho_sol. We then obtain a distance of 84 +/- 3 pc, in excellent agreement with the Hipparcos value. Finally, we suggest that a 3.5-day variability in all observables (equivalent widths and intensity) is caused by stellar rotation.

Extensive photometric multisite campaigns of the Delta Scuti variable FG Vir are presented. For the years 2003 and 2004, 926 hours of photometry at the millimag precision level were obtained. The combinations with earlier campaigns lead to excellent frequency resolution and high signal/noise. A multifrequency analysis yields 79 frequencies. This represents a new record for this type of star. The modes discovered earlier were confirmed. Pulsation occurs over a wide frequency band from 5.7 to 44.3 c/d with amplitudes of 0.2 mmag or larger. Within this wide band the frequencies are not distributed at random, but tend to cluster in groups. A similar feature is seen in the power spectrum of the residuals after 79 frequencies are prewhitened. This indicates that many additional modes are excited. The interpretation is supported by a histogram of the photometric amplitudes, which shows an increase of modes with small amplitudes. The old question of the missing modes may be answered now: the large number of detected frequencies as well as the large number of additional frequencies suggested by the power spectrum of the residuals con rms the theoretical prediction of a large number of excited modes. FG Vir shows a number of frequency combinations of the dominant mode at 12.7162 c/d (m = 0) with other modes of relatively high photometric amplitudes. The amplitudes of the frequency sums are higher than those of the differences. A second mode (20.2878 c/d) also shows combinations. This mode of azimuthal order m = -1 is coupled with two other modes of m = +1.

We report on a multi-site photometric campaign on the high-amplitude $delta$ Scuti star V2367 Cyg in order to determine the pulsation modes. We also used high-dispersion spectroscopy to estimate the stellar parameters and projected rotational velocit y. Time series multicolour photometry was obtained during a 98-d interval from five different sites. These data were used together with model atmospheres and non-adiabatic pulsation models to identify the spherical harmonic degree of the three independent frequencies of highest amplitude as well as the first two harmonics of the dominant mode. This was accomplished by matching the observed relative light amplitudes and phases in different wavebands with those computed by the models. In general, our results support the assumed mode identifications in a previous analysis of Kepler data.
In this paper, we analyze the light variations of KIC 10975348 using photometric data delivered from $Kepler$ mission. This star is exceptionally faint ($K_{p}$ = 18.6 mag), compared to most well-studied $delta$ Scuti stars. The Fourier analysis of t he short cadence data (i.e. Q14, Q15 and Q16, spanning 220 days) reveals the variations are dominated by the strongest mode with frequency F0 = 10.231899 $rm{d^{-1}}$, which is compatible with that obtained from $RATS-Kepler$. The other two independent modes with F1 (= 13.4988 $rm{d^{-1}}$) and F2 (= 19.0002 $rm{d^{-1}}$) are newly detected and have amplitudes two orders of magnitude smaller than F0. We note that, for the first time, this star is identified to be a high-amplitude $delta$ Sct (HADS) star with amplitude of about 0.7 mag, and the lower ratio of F0/F1 = 0.758 suggests it might be a metal-rich variable star. The frequency F2 may be a third overtone mode, suggesting this target might be a new radial triple-mode HADS star. We perform $O - C$ analysis using 1018 newly determined times of maximum light and derive an ephemeris formula: $T_{max}$ = 2456170.241912(0)+0.097734(1) $times$ $E$. The $O - C$ diagram shows that the pulsation period of KIC 10975348 seems to show no obvious change, which is in contrast to that of the majority of HADS stars. The possible cause of that may be due to the current short time span of observations. To verify its possible period variations, regular observation from space with a longer time span in future is needed.
Bi-site time-series photometric and high-resolution spectroscopic observations were made for the double-mode high-amplitude $delta$ Scuti star VX Hya. The fundamental frequency $f_{0}=4.4763 rm{c days^{-1}}$, the first overtone $f_{1}=5.7897 rm{c day s^{-1}}$ and 23 harmonics and linear combinations of $f_{0}$ and $f_{1}$ are detected by pulsation analysis. From the spectroscopic data, we get $rm{[Fe/H] = -0.2pm0.1 dex}$. The period change rate of the fundamental mode is obtained by using the Fourier-phase diagram method, which gives the value of $(1/P_{0})(dP_{0}/dt)=(1.81pm0.09) times 10^{-7} rm{yr}^{-1}$. With these results from the observations, we perform theoretical explorations with the stellar evolution code MESA, and constrain the models by fitting $f_{0}$, $f_{1}$, and $(1/P_{0})(dP_{0}/dt)$ within $3sigma$ deviations. The results show that the period change of VX Hya could be ascribed to the evolutionary effect. The stellar parameters of VX Hya could be derived as: the mass $2.385pm0.025 M_{odot}$, the luminosity $log(L/L_{odot})=1.93pm0.02$ and the age $(4.43pm0.13)times 10^8$ years. VX Hya is found to locate at the post-main-sequence stage with a helium core and a hydrogen-burning shell on the H${-}$R diagram.
The high accuracy of space data increased the number of the periodicities determined for pulsating variable stars, but the mode identification is still a critical point in the non-asymptotic regime. We use regularities in frequency spacings for ident ifying the pulsation modes of the recently discovered delta Sct star ID 102749568. In addition to analysing CoRoT light curves (15252 datapoints spanning 131 days), we obtained and analysed both spectroscopic and extended multi-colour photometric data. We applied standard tools (MUFRAN, Period04, SigSpec, and FAMIAS) for time-series analysis. A satisfactory light-curve fit was obtaining by means of 52 independent modes and 15 combination terms. The frequency spacing revealed distinct peaks around large (25.55-31.43 microHz), intermediate (9.80, 7.66 microHz), and low (2.35 microHz) separations. We directly identified 9 modes, and the l and n values of other three modes were extrapolated. The combined application of spectroscopy, multi-colour photometry, and modelling yielded the precise physical parameters and confirmed the observational mode identification. The large separation constrained the log g and related quantities. The dominant mode is the radial first overtone.
