Period doubling in Kepler RR Lyrae stars
R. Szabó, Z. Kolláth, L. Molnár +3
The origin of the conspicuous amplitude and phase modulation of the RR Lyrae pulsation - known as the Blazhko effect - is still a mystery after more than 100 years of its discovery…
Non-Blazhko RR Lyrae Stars Observed with the KEPLER Space Telescope
J. M. Nemec, R. Smolec, J. M. Benko +22
This paper summarizes the main results of our recent study of the non-Blazhko RR Lyrae stars observed with the Kepler space telescope. These stars offer the opportunity for studyin…
Fourier analysis of non-Blazhko ab-type RR Lyrae stars observed with the Kepler space telescope
J. M. Nemec, R. Smolec, J. M. Benko +22
Nineteen of the ~40 RR Lyr stars in the Kepler field have been identified as candidate non-Blazhko (or unmodulated) stars. In this paper we present the results of Fourier decomposi…
Variable turbulent convection as the cause of the Blazhko effect - testing the Stothers model
R. Smolec, P. Moskalik, K. Kolenberg +3
The amplitude and phase modulation observed in a significant fraction of the RR Lyrae variables - the Blazhko effect - represents a long-standing enigma in stellar pulsation theory…
