dc.descriptionStellar pulsations in main-sequence B-type stars are driven by the $κ$-mechanism due to the Fe-group opacity bump. The current models do not predict the presence of instability strips in the B spectral domain at very low metallicities. As the metallicity of the Magellanic Clouds has been measured to be around $Z=0.002$ for the SMC and $Z=0.007$ for the LMC, they constitute a very suitable objects to test these predictions.
