Reprinted from Astrophysics and Space Science, v.210, nos.1-2, 1993,
comprises the proceedings of a conference held in Mito, Japan, in
January 1992. Papers are grouped into three areas: fundamental
theories, observational facts, and models. Topics include patterns of
aperiodic pulsation, predicting variable star light curves,
understanding changes in period ratios, bifurcation in hydrodynamic
models of stellar pulsation, new opacities and first overtone mode
cepheids, coupled oscillators, and convection in nonlinear one-zone
stellar models. No index.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Synopsis: The nonlinear theory of oscillating systems has introduced new aspects to the study of variable stars, allowing the appearance and disappearance of possible models to be studied in detail. This volume presents a review of the new frontiers of variable star studies.
