The excitation mechanism for the pulsations of β Cephei stars and variable B stars is not yet understood. Recently, Stellingwerf (1978) found that an opacity bump located near the He+ ionization zone has a significant effect on the stability of radial pulsations in massive stars. However, the opacity bump, according to current opacities, is probably not enough to excite radial pulsations. On the other hand, some observational facts suggest that nonradial pulsations may participate in the variations of β Cephei stars and variable B stars. Therefore, it is interesting and important to examine the effect of the opacity bump on nonradial pulsations in massive stars.
