Difference between Stellar pulsation and Variable star

Stellar pulsation vs. Variable star

Stellar pulsations are caused by expansions and contractions in the outer layers as a star seeks to maintain equilibrium. A variable star is a star whose brightness as seen from Earth (its apparent magnitude) fluctuates.

Similarities between Stellar pulsation and Variable star

Stellar pulsation and Variable star have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Amplitude, Astronomical spectroscopy, Doppler effect, Instability strip, Light curve, Low-dimensional chaos in stellar pulsations, Overtone, RR Lyrae, Star.

Amplitude

The amplitude of a periodic variable is a measure of its change over a single period (such as time or spatial period).

Astronomical spectroscopy

Astronomical spectroscopy is the study of astronomy using the techniques of spectroscopy to measure the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, including visible light and radio, which radiates from stars and other celestial objects.

Doppler effect

The Doppler effect (or the Doppler shift) is the change in frequency or wavelength of a wave in relation to observer who is moving relative to the wave source.

Instability strip

The unqualified term instability strip usually refers to a region of the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram largely occupied by several related classes of pulsating variable stars: Delta Scuti variables, SX Phoenicis variables, and rapidly oscillating Ap stars (roAps) near the main sequence; RR Lyrae variables where it intersects the horizontal branch; and the Cepheid variables where it crosses the supergiants.

Light curve

In astronomy, a light curve is a graph of light intensity of a celestial object or region, as a function of time.
