A Machine Learning Approach to Cepheid Variable Star Classification Using Data Alignment and Maximum Likelihood
Our study centers on the classification of two subtypes of Cepheid variable stars. Such classification is relatively easy to obtain for nearby galaxies, but as we incorporate new galaxies, the cost of labeling stars calls for some form of model adaptation. Adapting a predictive model to differentiate Cepheids across galaxies is difficult because of the sample bias problem in star distribution (...
متن کاملThermal evolution of a pulsating neutron star
We have derived a set of equations to describe the thermal evolution of a neutron star which undergoes small-amplitude radial pulsations. We have taken into account, in the frame of the General Theory of Relativity, the pulsation damping due to the bulk and shear viscosity and the accompanying heating of the star. The neutrino emission of a pulsating non-superfluid star and its heating due to t...
متن کاملModel Selection for Cepheid Star Oscillations
Cepheid variables are a class of pulsating variable stars with the useful property that their periods of variability are strongly correlated with their absolute luminosity. Once this relationship has been calibrated, knowledge of the period gives knowledge of the luminosity. This makes these stars useful as “standard candles” for estimating distances in the universe. This paper updates and expa...
متن کامل53 Persei : a slowly pulsating B star ?
A new investigation of the behaviour of the star 53 Per was performed. New photometric observations allow to confirm twodominant periods p1=2.16 d, p2= 1.67 d.A third one p3= 3.64 d is detected. These long period variations are present in our radial velocities data and in old equivalent width data. The amplitude of the p1 = 2.16 d period increases from 1977 to 1991, while the amplitude of the 1...
متن کاملMystery solved
Mutant mice lacking the integrin alpha8 subunit exhibit variable defects in kidney development with most mutants missing both kidneys. Several lines of evidence indicate that the known extracellular matrix ligands for integrin alpha8beta1 are either dispensable for or not involved in alpha8beta1 signaling during kidney development. This suggests the presence of an unknown ligand. A novel alpha8...
