Δ Scuti Stars

The absolute magnitudes of δ Scuti stars derived from parallaxes measured by the Hipparcos satellite were compared with the previous estimates based on photometric uvby² indices, and significant differences were found which are related to photometric effects of metallicity and rotational velocity. A reliable calibration of Mv in terms of the photometric indices shall include an estimate of these effects. It is important also to take into account the possible presence of unresolved close companions in order to fully exploit the accuracy of Mv of nearby stars derived from the trigonometric parallaxes. The Mv of few bright SX Phe stars support the period-luminosity relation obtained with ground based observations of globular clusters, while it does not seem to confirm the empirical dependence of this relation on the metallicity. Some high amplitude δ Scuti stars with intermediate or normal metallicity and small and uncertain parallax have apparently a very low luminosity. Simulations of Mv determinations from observed parallaxes based on the discussion of observational errors by Lutz and Kelker (1973) have shown that the low luminosity could be an effect related to these errors.

AbstractFor δ Sct stars, the theoretical predictions of a non-adiabatic pulsation code are very dependent on the characteristics of the thin convective envelope of the models (Balona & Evers 1999). The treatment of the non-adiabatic interaction between convection and pulsation also has a significant impact on the results, particularly near the red edge of the instability strip. The non-adiabatic theoretical predictions can be tested upon observations by comparing them to the amplitude ratios and phase differences as observed in different color passbands (Dupret et al. 2003). In the first part of this paper, we compare the results obtained by adopting different treatments of convection in the interior and atmosphere models: mixing-length theory (MLT) and full spectrum of turbulence (FST) (Canuto et al. 1996, CGM). In the second part, we examine the problem of the interaction between convection and pulsation and compare the mode stability obtained with and without including time-dependent convection in our non-adiabatic code.

We describe the search for δ Scuti stars in the MACHO database of bulge fields. Concentrating on a sample of high amplitude δ Scutis, we examine the light curves and pulsation modes. We also discuss their spatial distribution and evolutionary status using mean colors and absolute magnitudes.
