Employing recent TP-AGB synthesis, we have carried out a detailed study on pulsation mode and period-luminosity relation of Mira variables by means of a population synthesis code. The theoretical criterion for selecting Mira variables has a great effect on the periods distribution. Compared with the observations, the distributions of the periods and the period-luminosity relations support that Mira variables are the fundamental mode pulsators.  相似文献

On the basis of observational data (Breger, 1979), a radial pulsation mode of 83 Delta Scuti stars is estimated in two ways. These stars can pulsate in four lowest modes—F, 1H, 2H, 3H— and, perhaps, in 4H and 5H. Our earlier suggestion—that the apparent heterogeneity of these objects in both the period-luminosity plane and the period-frequency distribution may be explained by means of pulsations in various modes—is confirmed. Semi-empirical period-luminosity relations for the four lowest modes are derived and the semi-empirical period ratios are compared with the theoretical ones.  相似文献

Luminosities of Population I pulsating stars (Delta Scuti variables and classical cepheids) are investigated. From data for 80 Delta Scuti stars, semi-empirical period-luminosity-colour (P-L-C) relations and period-luminosity (P-L) relations are obtained for the four lowest modes of radial pulsations. The improvement of the accuracy of the stellar luminosity is determined when a P-L-C relation is used instead of the corresponding P-L relation. From data for 155 classical cepheids, empirical P-L relations are derived for short-period stars (logP1.1), long-period stars (logP>1.1), and s-cepheids. The comparison of the P-L relations for the two types of variable stars shows good agreement, but between them there is a gap with a dim nature.  相似文献

Published photoelectric and CCD photometric data for fundamental-mode Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud are analyzed. The inferred scatter of the observed period-luminosity relation decreases with increasing quality of the light curves used. The observed scatter of the period-luminosity relations in the V and IC bands is as low as 0m.11 and 0m.07, respectively, i.e., a factor of 1.5 smaller than the lowest published estimates. This, in particular, suggests that the intrinsic scatter might be lower than previously believed.  相似文献

The zero points of the period-luminosity relations for the classical cepheids are calibrated based on the HIPPARCOS parallaxes of these stars. The calibrations are used to determine the distance moduli of the LMC and SMC: DM LMC = 18m.569 ± 0m.117 and DM SMC = 19m.070 ± 0m.119, respectively. It turns out that a calibration of the PL relations based on the distances of 25 FU classical cepheids in the galaxy by Gieren et al. yields a distance scale that is shorter by approximately 0m.20 than the calibrations based on the HIPPARCOS parallaxes.  相似文献

This paper discusses two aspects of current research on the Cepheid period-luminosity (P-L) relation: the derivation of mid-infrared (MIR) P-L relations and the investigation of multi-phase P-L relations.  相似文献

Six ways for obtaining approximate period-luminosity (P-L) relations for classical cepheids and Delta Scuti variables are presented. Three out of these ways were earlier schematically considered by J.P. Cox (1980, 1985). It was proceeded from certain results derived from the study of stellar pulsation and evolution, by using some simple considerations and simplifying assumptions. The expressions obtained for the coefficients of these approximate P-L relations, were used to estimate the slopes and the zero-points. In addition, it was evaluated the influence of both different modes of radial pulsations and variations of Population I chemical composition on the zero-points. The results satisfactorily agree with those derived from observations or accurate theoretical calculations.  相似文献

Some consequences from new data on the photometrically obtained intrinsic colours are considered. It is shown that the small amplitude and almost sinusoidal light-curve cepheids (Cs-subtype) increase their pulsation amplitude towards the red instability strip edge, differing from the other galactic cepheids. This feature is discussed in connection with Efremov's (1968) hypothesis that the Cs-cepheids first cross the instability strip from left to right. The galactic cepheid period-colour relation obtained by Dean, Warren and Cousins (1978) satisfies rather well the LMC cepheid observations and, consequently, considerations for the period-luminosity relations are made. The residuals from the PL relation proposed by us (AA line instead of Gascoigne's BB line in Figure 3) correlate with the colour residuals from the DWC period-colour relation V/(B–V) being equal to 2.7 (Figure 4). The luminosity effect as a possible cause of the descrepancy between the spectroscopic cepheid colours and the photometric colours is briefly discussed.  相似文献

The POMME survey (Pixel Observations of M31 with MEgacam) monitored two fields in the disc of M31 using MegaCam at CFHT over a timespan of 2.5 months in three filters (g′,r′,i′). Covering a large fraction of the disc of M31, it yields an unprecedented view on Cepheids, eclipsing binaries and microlensing events in M31. In this contribution we present the first results on the Cepheid populations in M31. Using difference imaging we detect more than 2500 Cepheids in the period range from 2 to 80 days, making the catalogue the largest and most homogeneous database of M31 Cepheids to date. The period distribution peaks at logP[day]≈0.63. We confirm the presence of a second peak in the period distribution at logP[day]≈1.13, consistent with previous findings on smaller samples, and which is also present in Galactic Cepheids, unlike those at the lower metallicities of the LMC. Using the Fourier parameters derived from light curve fitting we identify 200 first overtone pulsators among the POMME Cepheids. On-going work will include the derivation of period-luminosity relations and the extension of the analysis to eclipsing binary systems, yielding an improved distance to M31 and tighter constraints on systematics affecting the period-colour-metallicity-luminosity relations.  相似文献

We present moderate resolution CCD spectra and R photometry for seven KP2001 stars. We revised the spectral classification of the stars in the range λλ4000−8700? . Our photometric data confirmed the behavior of the light curves downloaded from the NSVS (Northern Sky Variability Survey) database. For KP2001-32, presented as a Mira-type variable in NSVS, we estimated absolute bolometric M b and K-band M K magnitudes as well as the distance using the period-luminosity relations. We also estimated the mass loss rate using the calibration relations between mass loss rate and K - [12] index. From the position in infrared color-color diagrams, we confirmed the photometric classification of KP2001-221 as a semiregular variable, based on the light curve of the NSVS database. For the N-type carbon star KP2001-77 we estimated distance and absolute magnitude M K using different calibration methods. For the remaining four objects we derived the absolute magnitudes and distances using our CCD spectra and published JHK S magnitudes. We discuss the nature of these objects on the basis of the obtained results.  相似文献

Published photometry in Sgri is used to derive the period-luminosity relation for Mira variables in yellow and in blue light. The observed dispersion about the adopted relation is comparable to that of RR Lyrae-stars around their mean luminosity. This suggests that the Mira star period-luminosity relation has a relatively small dispersion and is, therefore, a powerful tool for astronomical distance determination. The calibration of the Mira period-luminosity relation indicates that Glass and Feast may have overestimated the absorption in the direction of Sgri and NGC 6522.  相似文献

Factors contributing to the scatter around the ridge-line period-luminosity relationship are listed, followed by a discussion how to eliminate the adverse effects of these factors (mode of pulsation, crossing number, temperature range, reddening, binarity, metallicity, non-linearity of the relationship, blending), in order to reduce the dispersion of the P-L relationship.  相似文献

[Fe/H]–φ31– P relations are found for c-type RR Lyrae stars in globular clusters. The relations are analogous to that found by Jurcsik & Kovács for field ab-type RR Lyrae stars, where a longer period correlates with lower metallicity values for similar values of the Fourier coefficient φ31. The relations obtained here are used to determine the metallicity of field c-type RR Lyrae stars, those within ω Cen, the Large Magellanic Cloud and toward the galactic bulge. The results are found to compare favourably to metallicity values obtained elsewhere.  相似文献

The radiii of 17 classical Cepheids are determined. The linear surface brightness-colour relationS v=b(B–V)o+const is accepted. The present method permits the determination of the coefficientb for each star separately and the obtaining of the absolute magnitude of Cepheids. The coefficientb shows a slight dependence on the periodP of stars. The period-luminosity relation is approximately the same as the one obtained by van den Bergh (1976) for Cepheids in open clusters. The simultaneous radial velocity and photoelectric observation may show the phase shifts between motions of the continuum layer and of the level where the Fe I line is formed. The Cepheidl Car is outside the instability strip, and probably has a red companion as was suggested by Schmidt (1980a). Conclusions about the existence of overtone pulsators cannot probably be drawn only from the scattering in the period-radius relation.  相似文献

B and V data of Population II Cepheids in M2, M5, M10, M13, M80 and ω Cen are combined in order to obtain period-luminosity and period-colour relations. The mean absolute magnitudes are determined adopting as distance modulus the quantily [V(RR)-M v(RR)], whereV(RR) is the apparent mean magnitude of RR Lyrae andM v(RR) is the absolute magnitude derived from the transistion periodP tr. It is shown that the scatter of the points around the (P-L) and (P-C) relations depends also from the width of the instability strip. In fact the position of the variables in the instability strip may be correlated with their amplitude in the sense that the short period variables (logP<1) which have largest amplitudes are brightest and bluest while the long period variables (logP>1) show a reversed relation. Finally, after correcting the observed colours for the amplitude effect, period-colour-amplitude relations are derived for the both short and long period variables.  相似文献

The interpretation of the observed relation between median angular sizes (θ m) of extragalactic radio sources and flux density at 408 MHz has been examined. The predictedθ m-S relations based on well-observed strong sources in parent samples selected at 178 and 1400 MHz, and existing models of the evolving radio luminosity function can be made to fit the observed relation only by invoking cosmological evolution in linear sizes even for theq 0 = 0 universe. Predictions based on a parent sample at 2.7 GHz are shown to overestimate the contribution of steep-spectrum, compact (SSC) sources in low-frequency samples unless the downward curvature in the spectra of such sources is taken into account. When approximate corrections are made for this effect, predictions based on the 2.7 GHz parent sample cannot obviate the need for linear size evolution as claimed in the literature.  相似文献

The rationale behind recent calibrations of the Cepheid PL relation using the Wesenheit formulation is reviewed and reanalyzed, and it is shown that recent conclusions regarding a possible change in slope of the PL relation for short-period and long-period Cepheids are tied to a pathological distribution of HST calibrators within the instability strip. A recalibration of the period-luminosity relation is obtained using Galactic Cepheids in open clusters and groups, the resulting relationship, described by log L/L ⊙=2.415(±0.035)+1.148(±0.044)log P, exhibiting only the moderate scatter expected from color spread within the instability strip. The relationship is confirmed by Cepheids with HST parallaxes, although without the need for Lutz-Kelker corrections, and in general by Cepheids with revised Hipparcos parallaxes, albeit with concerns about the cited precisions of the latter. A Wesenheit formulation of W V =−2.259(±0.083)−4.185(±0.103)log P for Galactic Cepheids is tested successfully using Cepheids in the inner regions of the galaxy NGC 4258, confirming the independent geometrical distance established for the galaxy from OH masers. Differences between the extinction properties of interstellar and extragalactic dust may yet play an important role in the further calibration of the Cepheid PL relation and its application to the extragalactic distance scale.  相似文献

We have obtained empirical relations between the p-mode frequency shift and the change in solar activity indices. The empirical relations are determined on the basis of frequencies obtained from BBSO and GONG stations during solar cycle 22. These relations are applied to estimate the change in mean frequency for the cycle 21 and 23. A remarkable agreement between the calculated and observed frequency shifts for the ascending phase of cycle 23, indicates that the derived relations are independent of epoch and do not change significantly from cycle to cycle. We propose that these relations could be used to estimate the shift in p-mode frequencies for past, present and future solar activity cycles, if the solar activity index is known. The maximum frequency shift for cycle 23 is estimated to be 265±90 nHz, corresponding to a predicted maximum smoothed sunspot number 118.1±35.  相似文献

The propagation of waves in a magnetic slab embedded in a magnetic environment is investigated. The possible modes of propagation are examined from the general dispersion relation, both analytically and numerically, for disturbances which are evanescent in the environment. Approximate dispersion relations governing propagation in a slender slab of field are derived both from the general dispersion relation and from an application of the slender flux tube approximation.Several different situations, representative of both photospheric and coronal conditions, are considered. In general, the structures are found to support both fast and slow, body and surface, waves. Under coronal conditions, for two dimensional propagation, disturbances propagate as fast and slow body waves. The fast body waves are analogous to the ducted shear waves of seismology (Love waves).  相似文献
