A study of the variability of the Delta Scuti-stars

A total of 321 observations of the Delta Scuti star BD –6°4932, obtained in 1968 by Hall and Mallama (1970), are analyzed. We find four frequencies which represent the light curves satisfactorily.The three periods:P ₁=0 _. ^d 240,P ₃=0 _. ^d 182 andP ₄=0 _. ^d 114 seem to correspond to the radial modes of pulsation withK=0, 1, and 3, respectively. The last periodP ₂=0 _. ^d 220 can be related to a non-radial mode.
