Abstract

Asteroseismology relies on accurate mode identification. High-resolution spectroscopy allows to detect such crucial information as the pulsational degree , the azimuthal number m, and pulsation amplitudes, directly from time series of observations. The advantage of high-resolution spectroscopy over standard photometric techniques is that not only pulsational temperature variations can be detected, but also the pulsational velocity field, yielding valuable extra information. In this paper I review the mode-identification methods that have been developed over the last decades, with emphasis on the application to hot main-sequence stars.
