Pulsating Stars and Fractals

  • Chapter
Applying Fractals in Astronomy

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Physics Monographs ((LNPMGR,volume 3))

Abstract

Fractals are encountered in stellar pulsation theory as attractors, resulting from chaotic dynamics of pulsating stars. We review observational and theoretical investigations of chaotic stellar pulsations with particular emphasis on the physical information they provide about stellar interiors.
