Abstract: | An explanation for the observed correlation between the ratio (relative amplitude of flux variation)/(relative amplitude of radius variation) and the period of radial pulsation in cepheids is proposed. If the explanation is correct, correlations may be expected for other classes of pulsating stars with the general functional form determined by physical conditions in the atmosphere. |
