O-bearing Molecules in Carbon-rich Proto-Planetary Objects

Abstract:We use high-precision multiband photometric data of the first-overtone RR Lyrae star U Comae to investigate the predictive capability of full-amplitude, nonlinear, convective hydrodynamical models. The main outcome of this investigation is that theoretical predictions properly account for the luminosity variations along a full pulsation cycle. Moreover, we find that this approach, because of the strong dependence of this observable and of the pulsation period on stellar parameters, supplies tight constraints on stellar mass, effective temperature, and distance modulus. Pulsational estimates of these parameters appear in good agreement with empirical ones. Finally, a well-defined bump just before the luminosity maximum gave the unique opportunity to calibrate the turbulent convection model adopted for handling the coupling between pulsation and convection.
