Contains fulltext : 35171.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access), The primary star of the binary HD 92024 is a prominent beta Cephei variable; three oscillation frequencies are known, it is an eclipsing binary component and has cluster membership (NGC 3293). Towards asteroseismic inferences of the star's three known oscillation frequencies, we use photometry and spectroscopy to find that f_1=5.6400 ;c d-1, f_2=7.1624 ;c d-1 and f_3=6.6584 ;c d-1 are modes of degree l=2, 4 and 2 respectively, all with m!=0. We also find that by combining pulsational information from several spectral lines, we suppress the noise and improve the mode-identification process. In conclusion, HD 92024 is a key object to be subjected to a seismic analysis. We report on observational results obtained for 78 objects originally classified as bona-fide or candidate gamma Doradus stars. For the southern objects, we gathered echelle spectra with the CORALIE spectrograph attached to the Euler telescope in 1998-2003 and/or Johnson-Cousins B,V,I_c observations with the MODULAR photometer attached to the 0.5-m SAAO telescope in 1999-2000. For the northern objects, we obtained Geneva U,B,B_1,B_2,V,V_1,G observations with the P7 photometer attached to the 1.2

For the northern objects, we obtained Geneva U,B,B_1,B_2,V,V_1,G observations with the P7 photometer attached to the 1.2-m Mercator telescope in 2001-2004. At least 15 of our objects are binaries, of which 7 are new. For 6 binaries, we determined the orbit for the first time. At least 17 objects show profile variations and at least 12 objects are multiperiodic photometric variables. Our results allow us to upgrade 11 objects to bona-fide gamma Doradus stars and to downgrade 8 objects to constant up to the current detection limits. Mode identification is still ongoing, but so far, only ? = 1 and 2 modes have been identified.
