Combined Modeling of Stellar Evolution and Pulsation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
The radial pulsations of variable stars at specified points along their evolution are accurately described with numerical hydrodynamics. The behavior of the pulsations along evolutionary tracks can then be modeled with amplitude equations, whose coefficients are obtained from fits to these hydrodynamical models. To simulate stellar evolution we make the stellar core’s properties time-dependent and can investigate directly the effects on pulsation despite the very different time-scales (dynamical, thermal, evolutionary).
