Prospects for the ensemble asteroseismology in young open clusters

Dawid Moździerski, Andrzej Pigulski and BRITE Executive Science Team

This is a progress report on the ongoing project dealing with ensemble asteroseismology of B-type stars in young open clusters. The project is aimed at searches for B-type pulsating stars in open clusters, determination of atmospheric parameters for some members, and seismic modeling of B-type pulsators. Some results for NGC457, IC1805, IC4996, NGC6910, and α Per open clusters are presented. For the last cluster, BRITE data for five members were used.
