• The solutions of interest in stellar pulsation theory are the asymptotic solutions (as time tends towards infinity) because the time scale for the amplitude variations...
  • In The Physics of Stellar Pulsation, the radial pulsation of stars was attributed to standing sound waves in the stellar interior.
  • We are grateful to the developers of MESA and GYRE for providing and maintaining the publicly available stellar structure and stellar pulsation code.
  • From Tassoul (1980, 18 Stellar pulsation: an overview. Figure 6: This diagram plots the degree of a mode versus its frequency for a solar model.
  • Ever since some stars were found to pulsate in the early 20th century, stellar pulsation has been a major topic in astronomy and astrophysics.
  • The continuation of the series of Los Alamos stellar pulsation conferences starting in 1971 will be held in Santa Fe, May 31-June 5, 2009.
  • 1. Introduction. These lectures address but a part of the theory of stellar pulsation: the linearized adiabatic theory of acoustic gravity modes.
  • Recent papers in Stellar Pulsation. ... by Ibrahim KÜÇÜK. • 2. Stellar Pulsation, Delta Scuti type stars.
  • This chapter asks what high time resolution can bring to the study of stellar pulsation, with particular focus on the pulsations of subdwarf B stars.
  • 4 nonlinear stellar pulsation. We denote the linear eigenvalues by σj, for an assumed exp(σt) dependence, σj = κj + iωj Pj = 2π/ωj ηj = 2κjPj.
  • These pulsations are consequently well suited for detection by the existing resonant detectors. 3. Stellar pulsations: the theoretical minimum.
  • Sound waves travel through a star’s interior at speeds that change with depth, and they all combine into pulsation patterns at the star’s surface.
