Infrared Light Curves of Mira Variable Stars from COBE DIRBE Data

Beverly J. Smith, D. Leisawitz, M. W. Castelaz +1

We have used the COBE DIRBE database to derive near- and mid-infrared light curves for a well-defined sample of 38 infrared-bright Mira variable stars, and compared with optical da…

Phase Dependent Spectroscopy of Mira Variable Stars

Michael W. Castelaz, Donald G. Luttermoser, Daniel B. Caton +1

Spectroscopic measurements of Mira variable stars, as a function of phase, probe the stellar atmospheres and underlying pulsation mechanisms. For example, measuring variations in T…
