Characterisation of the Dynamics of a Variable Star

  • Chapter
Book cover Nonlinear Phenomena in Stellar Variability

Abstract

Tentatives to detect chaos in variable stars are presented. Constraints on the accuracy on individual measurements and length of the records, necessary to obtain de-fenitive conclusions, are discussed. Some directions for future improvements are sketched.
