摘要:

我们研究了所谓的BL Her星的性质,即,人口II造父变星的周期短于8天,使用更新的脉动模型和进化轨迹计算采用的金属丰度范围为Z=0.0001至Z=0.004。我们推导出了不同光度带的周期-星等(PM)和周期-韦森星(PW)关系,并表明这些关系的斜率与银河系球状星团中观测变量所确定的斜率是一致的,而不依赖于采用M_V(RR)-[Fe/H]关系来得到星团RR天琴座距离。此外,我们还表明,所提供的距离预测的PM和PW的关系BL她的明星同意的RR天琴座为基础的值的误差范围内。使用预测的关系与W Vir星,这是人口II造父变星的周期超过8天,提供了没有明确的证据,或反对的变化,在PM和PW的斜率约P~10天。

英文摘要:

We investigate the properties of the so-called BL Her stars, i.e., Population II Cepheids with periods shorter than 8 days, using updated pulsation models and evolutionary tracks computed adopting a metal abundance in the range of Z=0.0001 to Z=0.004. We derive the predicted Period-Magnitude (PM) and Period-Wesenheit (PW) relations at the various photometric bands and we show that the slopes of these relations are in good agreement with the slopes determined by observed variables in Galactic globular clusters, independently of the adopted M_V(RR)-[Fe/H] relation to get the cluster RR Lyrae-based distance. Moreover, we show that also the distances provided by the predicted PM and PW relations for BL Her stars agree within the errors with the RR Lyrae based values. The use of the predicted relations with W Vir stars, which are Population II Cepheids with periods longer than 8 days, provides no clear evidence for or against a change in the PM and PW slopes around P~10 days.
