Pulsations in Evolved Massive Stars

The post-main sequence evolution of massive stars still bears many unknowns. In particular, the physical processes involved in triggering enhanced mass-loss or eruptions are yet to be established. In this Chapter, the post-main sequence evolution of massive stars, and the various phases which are we...
