Resonance Between Pulsation Modes Due to Tidal Perturbation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 August 2017
Abstract
The effect of tidal perturbation to stellar pulsation is a relatively underdeveloped problem in the theory of variable stars. We derive amplitude equations describing the resonances between pulsational modes and orbital motion taking into consideration the rotation of stars as well. In the case of δ Scuti stars the two-mode-tidal resonance was found to be the most powerful effect. If the difference between frequencies of excited and damped mode is close to the orbital frequency, parametric excitation of the damped mode may occur, while the other mode loses energy. We discuss this effect for a wide range of parameters.
