Pulsations in Algols

We present a brief review of the recent results of photometric and spectroscopic surveys and 3-D hydrodynamic simulations of the mass- transfer for the class of oscillating mass-accreting components of Algols (oEA stars). These ground-based spectroscopic and space-based photometric surveys are aimed at detecting and studying the spectra of non- radial oscillations, to get precise orbits and parameters of the binaries, and studying the spectroscopic and the hydrodynamic nature of the mass- transfer. We discovered 47 new oEA stars in TESS data and carried out follow up spectroscopic observations of known and new oEA stars with the SALT telescope. We found that the co-existence of excitation of high-degree non-radial modes with a wide spectrum of low-degree modes is a common phenomenon in oEA stars.
