Query: Seismology of Altair with MOST   Altair is the fastest rotating star at less than 10 parsecs from the Sun. Its
precise modelling is a landmark for our understanding of stellar evolution with
fast rotation, and all observational constraints are most welcome to better
determine the fundamental parameters of this star. We wish to improve the
seismic spectrum of Altair and confirm the $\delta$-Scuti nature of this star.
We used the photometric data collected by the Microvariability and Oscillations
of STars (MOST) satellite in the form of a series of Fabry images to derive
Altair light curves at four epochs, namely in 2007, 2011, 2012, and 2013. We
first confirm the presence of $\delta$-Scuti oscillations in the light curves
of Altair. We extend the precision of some eigenfrequencies and add new ones to
the spectrum of Altair, which now has 15 detected eigenmodes. The rotation
period, which is expected at $\sim$7h46min from models reproducing
interferometric data, seems to appear in the 2012 data set, but it still needs
confirmation. Finally, Altair modal oscillations show noticeable amplitude
variations on a timescale of 10 to 15 days, which may be the signature of a
coupling between oscillations and thermal convection in the layer where the
kappa-mechanism is operating.The Altair oscillation spectrum does not contain a
large number of excited eigenmodes, which is similar to the fast rotating star
HD220811. This supports the idea that fast rotation hinders the excitation of
eigenmodes as already pointed out by theoretical investigations.
