In Delta Scuti star models, the calculated amplitude ratios and phase differences for multi-colour photometry exhibit a strong dependence on convection. These observables are tools for determination of the spherical harmonic degree of the excited modes. The dependence on convection enters through the complex parameter f, which describes bolometric flux perturbation. We present a method of simultaneous determination of f and spherical harmonic degree from multi-colour data and apply it to three Delta Scuti stars. The method indeed works. Determination of the degree appears unique and the inferred fs are sufficiently accurate to yield a useful constraint on models of stellar convection. Furthermore, the method helps to refine stellar parameters, especially if the identified mode is radial.

In $delta$ Scuti star models, the photometric amplitudes and phases exhibit a strong dependence on convection, which enters through the complex parameter, $f$, which describes the bolometric flux variation. We present a new method of extracting simul
taneously $ell$ and $f$ from multi-colour data and apply it to several $delta$ Scuti stars. The inferred values of $f$ are sufficiently accurate to yield an useful constraint on models of stellar convection. In addition, if the identified mode is radial, the multi-passband data may be used to refine global stellar parameters. Finally, the usage of radial velocity measurements to our method improves significantly determination of $ell$ and $f$.
We investigate the pulsation properties of stellar models representative of $delta$ Scuti and $gamma$ Doradus variables. We have calculated a grid of stellar models from 1.2 to 2.2 M$_{odot}$, including the effects of both rotation and convective ove
rshoot using MESA, and we investigate the pulsation properties of these models using GYRE. We discuss observable patterns in the frequency spacing for $p$ modes and the period spacings for g modes. Using the observable patterns in g mode period spacings, it may be possible to observationally constrain the convective overshoot and rotation of a model. We also calculate the pulsation constant (Q) for all models in our grid, and investigate the variation with convective overshoot and rotation. The variation in Q values of radial modes can be used to place constraints on the convective overshoot and rotation of stars in this region. As a test case, we apply this method to a sample of 22 high amplitude $delta$ Scuti stars (HADS), and provide estimates for the convective overshoot of the sample.
In this work we propose a preliminary seismic investigation of $delta$ Scuti stars in the Pleiades cluster, focusing on potential diagnostics of convection and core-overshooting. Taking into account the effect of fast rotation in the modelling, we co
mpare observed frequencies for 4 $delta$ Scuti stars with radial linear instability predictions. A satisfying agreement is reached between the predicted ranges of unstable modes and those derived from observations for ``low-mass stars ($sim 1.55 M_{odot}$). However, a strong disagreement is found for ``high-mass stars ($sim 1.77 M_{odot}$), whatever the mixing length $(alpha)$ value. These results are compared with previous ones obtained for Praesepe.
HD 220392 (HR 8895), the brightest member of the visual double star CCDM 23239-5349, is a new short-period variable bright star, probably of the Delta Scuti type. The period analysis performed on the complete set of definitive Geneva photometry as we
ll as on the data obtained at the ESO 0.5m telescope shows two periodicities of about 4.7 and 5.5 cycles per day (cpd) with amplitudes of 0.014 and 0.011 mag respectively. A similar period search on the (smaller) dataset obtained for the 1 mag fainter B-component, HD 220391, however shows no periodicity with an amplitude significantly above the noise level of the data (about 0.006 mag). This difference in variability behaviour is discussed from the consideration that both stars form a common origin pair and are located in the Delta Scuti instability strip.
The current knowledge of the abundance pattern in delta Scuti stars is based on the analysis of just a few field stars. We aim to determine the general chemical properties of the atmospheres of delta Scuti stars based on a statistically relevant samp
le of stars and will investigate whether the abundance pattern is close to solar, an assumption generally made for pulsation models. We have analysed high-resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio spectra of seven field delta Scuti stars. We derived the fundamental parameters and the photospheric abundances and compared them to a similar sample of cluster delta Scuti stars. With the use of a t-test we demonstrated that there is no difference between the two samples, which allows us to merge them, resulting in a sample of fifteen delta Scuti stars. We did not find any substantial difference between the abundance pattern of our sample of delta Scuti stars and a sample of normal early A- and late F-type stars. One field star in our sample, HD 124953, is most likely a pulsating Am star.
