Hybrid γ Doradus/δ Scuti Stars: Comparison Between Observations and Theory Available to Purchase

γ Doradus (γ Dor) are F‐type stars pulsating with high order g‐modes. Their instability strip (IS) overlaps the red edge of the δ Scuti δ Sct) one. This observation has led to search for objects in this region of the HR diagram showing p and g‐modes simultaneously. The existence of such hybrid pulsators has recently been confirmed [10] and the number of candidates is increasing (e.g. [17]). From a theoretical point of view, non‐adiabatic computations including a time‐dependent treatment of convection (TDC) predict the existence of γ Dor/δ Sct hybrid pulsators ([5], [8]). Our aim is to confront the properties of the observed hybrid candidates with the theoretical predictions from non‐adiabatic computations of non‐radial pulsations including the convection‐pulsation interaction.
