  • Pulsating Variable Stars and the Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram
    - !% ! $1!%" % Studying intrinsically pulsating variable stars plays a very important role in stellar evolution under- standing. The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is a powerful tool to track which stage of stellar life is represented by a particular type of variable stars. Let's see what major pulsating variable star types are and learn about their place on the H-R diagram. This approach is very useful, as it also allows to make a decision about a variability type of a star for which the properties are known partially. The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram shows a group of stars in different stages of their evolution. It is a plot showing a relationship between luminosity (or abso- lute magnitude) and stars' surface temperature (or spectral type). The bottom scale is ranging from high-temperature blue-white stars (left side of the diagram) to low-temperature red stars (right side). The position of a star on the diagram provides information about its present stage and its mass. Stars that burn hydrogen into helium lie on the diagonal branch, the so-called main sequence. In this article intrinsically pulsating variables are covered, showing their place on the H-R diagram. Pulsating variable stars form a broad and diverse class of objects showing the changes in brightness over a wide range of periods and magnitudes. Pulsations are generally split into two types: radial and non-radial. Radial pulsations mean the entire star expands and shrinks as a whole, while non- radial ones correspond to expanding of one part of a star and shrinking the other. Since the H-R diagram represents the color-luminosity relation, it is fairly easy to identify not only the effective temperature Intrinsic variable types on the Hertzsprung–Russell and absolute magnitude of stars, but the evolutionary diagram.

  • Variable Star
    Variable star A variable star is a star whose brightness as seen from Earth (its apparent magnitude) fluctuates. This variation may be caused by a change in emitted light or by something partly blocking the light, so variable stars are classified as either: Intrinsic variables, whose luminosity actually changes; for example, because the star periodically swells and shrinks. Extrinsic variables, whose apparent changes in brightness are due to changes in the amount of their light that can reach Earth; for example, because the star has an orbiting companion that sometimes Trifid Nebula contains Cepheid variable stars eclipses it. Many, possibly most, stars have at least some variation in luminosity: the energy output of our Sun, for example, varies by about 0.1% over an 11-year solar cycle.[1] Contents Discovery Detecting variability Variable star observations Interpretation of observations Nomenclature Classification Intrinsic variable stars Pulsating variable stars Eruptive variable stars Cataclysmic or explosive variable stars Extrinsic variable stars Rotating variable stars Eclipsing binaries Planetary transits See also References External links Discovery An ancient Egyptian calendar of lucky and unlucky days composed some 3,200 years ago may be the oldest preserved historical document of the discovery of a variable star, the eclipsing binary Algol.[2][3][4] Of the modern astronomers, the first variable star was identified in 1638 when Johannes Holwarda noticed that Omicron Ceti (later named Mira) pulsated in a cycle taking 11 months; the star had previously been described as a nova by David Fabricius in 1596. This discovery, combined with supernovae observed in 1572 and 1604, proved that the starry sky was not eternally invariable as Aristotle and other ancient philosophers had taught.

The ESA Gaia mission provides a unique time-domain survey for more than 1.6 billion sources with G . 21 mag. Aims. We showcase stellar variability across the Galactic colour-absolute magnitude diagram (CaMD), focusing on pulsating, eruptive, and cata- clysmic variables, as well as on stars exhibiting variability due to rotation and eclipses. Methods. We illustrate the locations of variable star classes, variable object fractions, and typical variability amplitudes throughout the CaMD and illustrate how variability-related changes in colour and brightness induce ‘motions’ using 22 months worth of calibrated photometric, spectro- photometric, and astrometric Gaia data of stars with significant parallax. To ensure a large variety of variable star classes to populate the CaMD, we crossmatch Gaia sources with known variable stars. We also used the statistics and variability detection modules of the Gaia variability pipeline. Corrections for interstellar extinction are not implemented in this article. Results. Gaia enables the first investigation of Galactic variable star populations across the CaMD on a similar, if not larger, scale than previously done in the Magellanic Clouds. Despite observed colours not being reddening corrected, we clearly see distinct regions where variable stars occur and determine variable star fractions to within Gaia’s current detection thresholds.

While classed as eruptive variables, these stars do not undergo periodic increases in brightness; instead, they spend most of their time at maximum brightness. The Chandrasekhar limit is surpassed from the infalling matter. They are not related to classical novae. Communications in Asteroseismology. January If there are clouds of interstellar matter around the star, some light is reflected from the clouds. R Andromedae. These may show darker spots on its surface. Because of the decreasing temperature the degree of ionization also decreases. Mira Semiregular Slow irregular. The initial light curve resembled that of a nova , an eruption that occurs when enough hydrogen gas has accumulated on the surface of a white dwarf from its close binary companion. As the gas is thereby compressed, it is heated and the degree of ionization again increases. As dust is formed and moves away from the star, it will eventually cool to below the dust condensation temperature, at which point a cloud will become opaque, causing the star's observed brightness to drop. So far several rather different explanations for the eruption of V Monocerotis have been published. However, the namesake for classical Cepheids is the star Delta Cephei , discovered to be variable by John Goodricke a few months later. For example, dwarf novae are designated U Geminorum stars after the first recognized star in the class, U Geminorum.

The Hipparcos catalogue of unsolved variables is employed to complement the training set of periodic variables of Dubath et al. with irregular and non-periodic repre- sentatives, leading to 3881 sources in total which describe 24 variability types. The attributes employed to characterize light-curve features are selected according to their relevance for clas- sification.

Hipparcos Catalogue: Variability Annex The variability annex has been compiled from an analysis of the (calibrated) Hipparcos epoch photometry data, described in Section 2.5. The variability annex is divided into two tabular sections (contained in Volume 11 of the printed catalogue), with three additional parts containing light curves or folded light curves (contained in Volume 12 of the printed catalogue). The criteria for including an object in the Variability Annex are described in Section 1.3.5. The results presented in the context of the Hipparcos Catalogue publication are in- evitably a compromise between the objectives of the data analysis groups to provide useful variability classi®cation at the time of the catalogue publication, and the con¯ict- ing requirement to make the ®nal catalogue available as rapidly as possible. Terms such as `newly-discovered as variable by Hipparcos', assigned variability types, or inferred absence of variability, should be understood in this context. Description of the Tabular Data Volume 11, Section 1 is the subset of variable stars (`periodic variables') for which a period and variability amplitude has been derived on the basis of the Hipparcos data. There are also cases where the Hipparcos data were insuf®cient to determine a period but, when folded with the period given in the literature, con®rm that periodÐin some cases this has provided a new determination of the reference epoch. In nearly 200 cases, mainly involving Algol-type eclipsing binaries, for which the Hipparcos observations covered the full period of the light curves inadequately, periods and reference epochs from the literature were used to fold the data.
