Description
MOST has detected p and g-modes in the B supergiant star HD163899. Saio
et al. (2006) have explained the driving of g-modes in a post main
sequence star by the presence of a convective shell which prevents some
modes from entering the damping radiative core. We show that this
scenario depends on the evolution of the star, with or without mass
loss. If the mass loss rate is high enough, the convective shell
disappears and all the g-modes are stable.
