Abstract:

The linear adiabatic pulsation-periods of Mira variable stars have been derived. Approximately 2701[1]models were calculated for M = 0.7 MΘ to 2 MΘ stars with radii from 180 RΘ to 340 RΘ and luminosities from 2800 LΘ to 10,000 LΘ. The chemical composition of all models is (X,Z) = (0.7,0.02). From the result of this study, linear relations on Luminosity-Period-Mass relationship and luminosity-period-radius-mass relationship have been derived for the fundamental mode. The relation has been tested on a recent data set of Mira stars in the LMC. 1 Models of various computational input are available through the author.

Pulsation modes of Mira stars and questioning of linear modelling: indications from HIPPARCOS and the LMC

Thorough discussion of the previous theoretical works on the pulsation of Long Period Variables leads us to the conclusion that the mode periods predicted by linear models must significantly differ from the reality, and that, if one nevertheless relies upon such a modelling, it is at least necessary to change the mixing length. The hypothesis that the so–derived mode periods be reasonably relia...

Envelope tomography of long-period variable stars⋆ III. Line-doubling frequency among Mira stars

This paper presents statistics of the line-doubling phenomenon in a sample of 81 long-period variable (LPV) stars of various periods, spectral types and brightness ranges. The set of observations consists of 315 highresolution optical spectra collected with the spectrograph ELODIE at the Haute-Provence Observatory, during 27 observing nights at one-month intervals and spanning two years. When c...

Studying the Pulsation of Mira Variables in the Ultraviolet

We present results from an empirical study of the Mg II h & k emission lines of selected Mira variable stars, using spectra from the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE). The stars all exhibit similar Mg II behavior during the course of their pulsation cycles. The Mg II flux always peaks after optical maximum near pulsation phase φ = 0.2 − 0.5, although the Mg II flux can vary greatly from ...

Secular Evolution in Mira Variable

Stellar evolution theory predicts that asymptotic giant branch stars undergo a series of short thermal pulses that significantly change their luminosity and mass on timescales of hundreds to thousands of years. These pulses are confirmed observationally by the existence of the short-lived radioisotope technetium in the spectra of some of these stars, but other observational consequences of ther...
