Abstract
AbstractConvective envelopes in stars on the main sequence are usually connected only with stars of spectral types F5 or later. However, observations as well as theory indicate that the convective outer layers in hotter stars, despite being shallow, are still effective and turbulent enough to stochastically excite oscillations. Because of the low amplitudes, exploring stochastically excited pulsations became possible only with space missions such as Kepler and CoRoT. Here I review the recent results and discuss among others, pulsators such as δ Scuti, γ Doradus, roAp, β Cephei, Slowly Pulsating B and Be stars, all in the context of solar-like oscillations.
