Abstract.We recently discovered an apparently new class of pulsating Extreme Horizontal Branch (EHB) star in Cen. Tightly clustered around ∼50,000 K, these H-rich sdO stars exhibit rapid, multi-periodic oscillations on a timescale of 100 s. While four such objects have been detected in Cen, no counterparts have yet been found among the field population. Conversely, the rapid sdB pulsators around 31,000 K that are well-studied in the Galactic field have yet to be found in a globular cluster. We discuss the implications of this and also report the discovery of a fifth EHB pulsator in Cen.
