Book Synopsis New Perspectives on Stellar Pulsation and Pulsating Variable Stars by : James M. Nemec
Download or read book New Perspectives on Stellar Pulsation and Pulsating Variable Stars written by James M. Nemec and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-10-21 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can the interior of the Sun, white dwarfs and other stars be studied by stellar seismology? What can Doppler imaging tell us about high-degree pulsations? What impact are CCD and infrared observations having on extending the Cepheid and RR Lyrae distance scale? And how are other classes of pulsators providing independent checks of the distance scale? These and many other critical questions are answered in this timely review of the dramatic advances made in pulsating star research in the last decade. This survey collects together more than thirty comprehensive reviews and over one hundred summaries of research papers from the 139th IAU Colloquium, held in Victoria, British Columbia. Together these cover all aspects of recent developments in the field of variable star research and preview some of the exciting advances anticipated for the next decade. This volume provides an essential review for graduate students and researchers.

Download or read book Pulsating Stars written by Márcio Catelan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-03-23 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book surveys our understanding of stars which change in brightness because they pulsate. Pulsating variable stars are keys to distance scales inside and beyond the Milky Way galaxy. They test our understanding not only of stellar pulsation theory but also of stellar structure and evolution theory. Moreover, pulsating stars are important probes of the formation and evolution of our own and neighboring galaxies. Our understanding of pulsating stars has greatly increased in recent years as large-scale surveys of pulsating stars in the Milky Way and other Local Group galaxies have provided a wealth of new observations and as space-based instruments have studied particular pulsating stars in unprecedented detail.
Download or read book Stellar Pulsations written by J.C. Suárez and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-20 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyses of photometric time series obtained from the MOST, CoRoT and Kepler space missions were presented at the 20th conference on Stellar Pulsations (Granada, September 2011). These results are leading to a re-appraisal of our views on stellar pulsation in some stars and posing some new and unexpected challenges. The very important and exciting role played by innovative ground-based observational techniques, such as interferometric measurements of giant pulsating stars and high-resolution spectroscopy in the near infrared, is also discussed. These Proceedings are distinguished by the format of the conference, which brings together a variety of related but different topics not found in other meetings of this nature.

Book Synopsis Stellar Pulsation - Nonlinear Studies by : Mine Takeuti
Download or read book Stellar Pulsation - Nonlinear Studies written by Mine Takeuti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stellar pulsations provide a complex system in stars. This complexity is studied by analyzing the non-sinusoidal, semi-regular, or irregular light curves. This unique volume summarizes the application of recent theoretical results obtained from stellar pulsation studies. In addition, the latest developments in hydrodynamic simulations are discussed. A historical sketch of the study of beat Cepheids, first known for their variable amplitudes, is given as an introduction to the book. This introduction clearly demonstrates how complicated the study of variable stars can be, and therefore challenges and invites the reader to study the entire book.

Book Synopsis Stellar Pulsation by : Joyce Ann Guzik
Download or read book Stellar Pulsation written by Joyce Ann Guzik and published by American Institute of Physics. This book was released on 2009-10-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At many stages of their lives, stars exhibit variability due to pulsations or oscillations. These oscillations give us a window to ‘inside the star’, to infer its interior structure and composition, and to test the physics of stellar models. The calibration of stellar luminosity with pulsation period allows us to measure distances within the Milky Way and to nearby galaxies. This volume describes the latest observational and theoretical research and remaining challenges for understanding pulsating variable stars of all types.

Book Synopsis Challenges in Stellar Pulsation by : L. A. Balona
Download or read book Challenges in Stellar Pulsation written by L. A. Balona and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 huge amount of data recently available from observational surveys, new discoveries from space missions and studies of pulsating stars in low-metallicity environments have opened new perspectives and challenges. Nevertheless, progress in finding the holy grail of stellar pulsation - the use of pulsation to study stellar interiors (asteroseismology) - has been slow. the realization that a problem exists with the current stellar opacities is a major setback. CURRENT CHALLENGES IN STELLAR PULSATION describes the search for solutions to these problems over the last few years. It summarizes recent research in all fields of stellar pulsation, providing valuable guidelines to both students and researchers in the field.

Book Synopsis The Pulsations of the Sun and the Stars by : Jean-Pierre Rozelot
Download or read book The Pulsations of the Sun and the Stars written by Jean-Pierre Rozelot and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-07-03 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of lecture notes brings together the knowledge on pulsations of the Sun and the stars, with a particular emphasis on recent observations and modelling, and on the influence of pulsations of other physical processes. The book begins with an extensive introduction to helioseismology. The solar cycle and gravity modes are discussed before the focus is widened from helioseismology to asteroseismology which is detailed in a series of specific chapters. Based on courses given at a graduate school, these tutorial lecture notes will be of interest and useful to a rather broad audience of scientists and students.
