Abstract

The high amplitude \(\delta \) Sct (HADS) stars are a subgroup of \(\delta \) Sct stars that are typically slow rotators with peak-to-peak light excursions that exceed 0.3 mag and predominantly pulsate in the fundamental and/or first overtone radial p modes. These stars are rare, making up less than one per cent of pulsating stars in the classical instability strip. In this chapter, the only two HADS stars observed by the Kepler Space Telescope are studied, including detectable changes in pulsation mode periods that may be caused by stellar evolution.
