Next: V652HER AND MERGED BINARY Up: EXTREME HELIUM STARS: PULSATION Previous: MASSES . Although pulsations in EHes appear to be ubiquitous, it is not possible to summarize their properties with a single definition. ... The first discovery of pulsation in an EHe was made by Landolt (1975), who discovered a 0.1day photometric period in V652Her, and by Hill et al. (1981), who measured the radial velocity curve and demonstrated the variations were due to radial pulsation. ... 1987, Jeffery et al. ...

Modern Dynamic Methods of Determination of Parameters of Meteor Bodies . ... The study takes an approach in modelling the fireballs' mass and other properties from the rate of body deceleration in the atmosphere as opposed to conventionally used luminosity. An analytical model of the atmospheric entry is calculated for registered fireballs using published observational data and evaluating parameters describing drag and ablation of meteors and bolides along the luminous segment of the trajectory. ...
