Descripción
We overview the different classes of B-type pulsators and show from our ground-based data that current data sets are insufficient to derive the complete frequency spectrum. From line-profile studies, we find that many modes with small amplitudes are excited in some stars, of which extensive ground-based photometry has revealed only one frequency. MONS data of such objects would offer a unique opportunity to perform seismology in massive stars that are situated along the main sequence.
