Studies on amplitude modulated RR Lyrae stars. II. RS Bootis.

NAGY A.

Abstract (from CDS):

All photographic and photoelectric observations of RS Boo since 1938 have been analysed in order to obtain an accurate mathematical description of the light variation. A Fourier sum with frequencies f0, fm, kf0, kf0±fm, where k=1,2,...,11; f0=2.6501491d–1; fm=0.001886d–1 and a linear period change of the f0 and the kf0 components with β=7.0x10–11 give a fit with a standard deviation of σ=0.064mag. Considering the various quality and the long span of the data, this level of accuracy can be regarded as a good one. In contrast with some reports about the existence of a secondary modulation we have not found any sign of this component in the prewhitened spectrum.
