Variability of long-period pulsating stars. II. Additional parameters for classifying stars

  • Published:
Astrophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

Results are presented from an analysis of observations in a sample of 53 long-period pulsating stars (44 of which are Mira-type and 9 are semiregular variables). A catalog of the characteristics of the individual pulsation cycles of the light curves is obtained for these stars. A correlation analysis of the characteristics of the individual pulsation cycles is carried out for each star. A number if diagrams relating the variability of the characteristics of the individual cycles to the average parameters of the variability of the stars and to their spectral classes. New criteria for classifying long-period variables are proposed on the basis of these diagrams.
