摘要：
辐射不透明度是控制造父变星包层热响应和径向脉动驱动或阻尼的核心微观物理输入之一。我们对用MESA径向恒星脉动模块计算的固定经典造父变星非线性径向脉动模型进行了可控的不透明度敏感性实验。恒星和脉动参数保持固定，改变高温不透明度源，结果表明本征不透明度选择对周期匹配等有显著影响，但不能解决观测振幅差异。
英文摘要：
Radiative opacity is one of the central microphysical inputs controlling the thermal response of Cepheid envelopes and the driving or damping of radial pulsations. We present a controlled opacity-sensitivity experiment for a fixed delta Cephei nonlinear radial pulsation model computed with the MESA Radial Stellar Pulsation module. The stellar and pulsation parameters are held fixed at M = 5.0 solar masses , Teff = 6050 K, L = 2360 solar luminosities , X = 0.73, Z = 0.007, and RSP_alfam = 0.425, while the high-temperature opacity source is varied among native MESA opacity configurations: OPAL-A09, OP-A09, and OPLIB-AGSS09. The low-temperature opacity prefix, C/O-dependent opacity prefix, and all other RSP parameters are kept fixed so that the comparison isolates the effect of the adopted high-temperature opacity table. Verification integrations were performed at 20, 100, and 300 pulsation cycles, followed by photo-restarted continuations to 500 cycles. At 500 cycles, OPAL-A09 gives the closest period agreement, PRSP = 5.366986 d, only about 39 s longer than Pobs = 5.366531 d. OP-A09 gives the largest amplitude-growth diagnostics, with Delta Mag = 0.037307 and Delta R = 0.293677, corresponding to increases of 42.5% and 43.9% relative to OPAL-A09. OPLIB-AGSS09 gives a systematically longer period, P_RSP = 5.403926 d, with more modest amplitude-growth changes. The same ordering is reflected in the MESA history-column diagnostic rsp_GREKM, defined by the MESA defaults as the fractional growth of kinetic energy per pulsation period. These results show that native opacity choice measurably affects period matching, pulsation growth diagnostics, and nonlinear amplitude growth in this fixed δ Cephei model. However, the tested opacity choices do not by themselves resolve the known observed-amplitude discrepancy.
