Abstract: Using data from the AFOE and simulations of pulsating stars, we are able to rule out pulsations as the cause of the radial velocity variations seen in tau Bootis and conclude that it is unlikely that pulsations are the cause of radial velocity variations seen in 51 Pegasi. Orbital companions are still the most probable causes of the radial velocity variations observed in these systems.
