Period changes of δ Scuti stars and stellar evolution
Period changes of δ Scuti stars have been collected or redetermined from the available observations and are compared with values computed from evolutionary models with and without convective core overshooting. For the radial pulsators of Pop. I, the observations indicate (1/P) dP/dt values around 10 year with equal distribution between period increases and decreases. The evolutionary models, on...
متن کاملNon-Linear Cepheid Period-Luminosity Relation and the Interaction of Stellar Photosphere with Hydrogen Ionization Front
The Cepheid period-luminosity (P-L) relation is regarded as a linear relation (in log[P]) for a wide period range from ∼ 2 to ∼ 100 days. However, several recent controversial works have suggested that the P-L relation derived from the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) Cepheids exhibits a non-linear feature with a break period around 10 days. Here we review the evidence for linear/non-linear P-L rel...
متن کاملPeriod, Color, and Luminosity for Cepheid Variables
Payne-Gaposehkin, Cecilia H. Period, Color, and Luminosity for Cepheid Variables. Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics, number 17, 10 pages, 8 tables, 1974.—The Cepheids of the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds display a gradation in properties, but when amplitude as well as period is taken into account, their intrinsic colors are sensibly similar. The periodluminosity relations in the thre...
متن کاملCepheid models based on self-consistent stellar evolution and pulsation calculations: the right answer?
We have computed stellar evolutionary models for stars in a mass range characteristic of Cepheid variables (3 < m/M < 12) for different metallicities representative of the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds populations. The stellar evolution calculations are coupled to a linear non adiabatic stability analysis to get self-consistent mass-period-luminosity relations. The period luminosity relation...
متن کاملThe Intermediate-period Cepheid Strip Stars
To explore the population of variable stars that fall between RR Lyrae stars and classical Cepheids, we have obtained extensive photometric observations for 56 stars with periods between 0.6 and 1.0 days. For these stars and an additional 10, we have examined the form and stability of the light curves to explore the variety of types of stars in this period regime. We conclude that the majority ...
