| contents | Asteroseismology, the study of stellar vibration, has met with great success, shedding light on stellar interior structure, rotation, and magnetism. Prominently known as $δ$ Scutis, intermediate-mass main-sequence oscillators that often exhibit rapid rotation and possess complex internal stratification, are important targets of asteroseismic study. $δ$ Scuti pulsations are driven by the $κ$ (opacity) mechanism, resulting in a set of acoustic modes that can be challenging to interpret. Here, we apply machine learning to identify new patterns in the pulsation frequencies of $δ$ Scuti stars, discovering resonances spaced according to quadratic functions of integer mode indices. This unusual connection between mode frequencies and indices suggests that rotational influence may play an important role in determining the frequencies of these acoustic oscillations. |
