Synthetic Nonlinear RR Lyrae Instability Strips
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
A recently recognized problem is revisited, namely the discrepancy between the structure of the theoretical and the empirical, observationally derived RR Lyrae instability strips. The essence of the discrepancy is that the slope of the empirical fundamental-mode blue edge is much less steep than its theoretical counterpart. The issue was investigated by means of stellar evolution and mode selection captured by nonlinear models.
