Abstract
We report the discovery of non-radial pulsations with at least 4 periods in the B7V star HD 37151. This result is based on 465 photometric measurements spanning 12 years. In addition, 30 high-resolution spectra were taken in the Mg II λ4481 region: they show a small projected rotational velocity and slight variations of the line profiles. Although this star was once classified B8Vp(Si), all available data show it is a normal B7V star. It is the second coolest SPB star found to date.
Based on observations made at European Southern Observatory, La Silla, Chile and supported in part by the Swiss National Foundation for Scientific Research
