Abstract

Theoretical problems in connection with δ Sct and RRs type variables are reviewed. All evidence shows that δ Sct stars are normal main-sequence or early post main-sequence stars. Results of linear stability analyses of δ Sct models agree well with observations, the presence of non-variables in the strip being understandable in terms of helium diffusion. Excitation of non-radial modes may also occur; comparison of observed multiple periodicities with the theoretically derived period patterns for radial and non-radial modes is discussed as a means to distinguish between these possibilities.
