Determining the fundamental parameters of F and G supergiants
Lyubimkov, L. S.; Rachkovskaya, T. M.; Poklad, D. B.
A technique for determining the effective temperature Teff and the acceleration of gravity log g of F and G supergiants is discussed using four bright stars as examples, specifically two F supergiants, α Lep(F0 Ib) and π Sgr (F2 II), and two G supergiants, β Aqr (G0 Ib) and α Aqr (G2 Ib). In all four cases the parameter log g was derive…
Physical parameters of the semiregular variable red giant 2 Cen
Arkharov, A. A.; Ruban, E. V.; Hagen-Thorn, E. I. +1 more
This is a study of photometric data from the Hipparcos catalog and spectrophotometric observations by a group of Pulkovo observers in Bolivia of the variable star 2 Cen (V806 Cen). Fourier analysis yields a more precise value of 12.57 d for the period of the brightness variation instead of 12.0 d. Light curves constructed from the photometric data…
