Invited_talk abstract details

Thanks to the advent of very successful asteroseismic space missions such as MOST, CoRoT or Kepler, important observational results have been obtained regarding the pulsations and periodic variations of hot stars. Using modeling and semi-analytical calculations, these observations allow to infer informations about the internal structure of hot stars, their mixing processes, the excitation of pulsations, and even the mechanism of outbursts in the case of Be stars.
In this talk I will review the main results obtained with the asteroseismic space missions and associated ground-based observations on hot stars, as well as the tools used to extract pulsational information from the data and infer structure information.
