Abstract:
Current models and observations of variability in HgMn stars disagree.We present here the models that argue for pulsating HgMn stars with properties similar to those of SlowlyPulsating B Stars. The lack of observed variable HgMn stars suggeststhat some physical process is missing from the models. Somepossibilities are discussed.
