The Light Curve of the Pulsating Extreme Helium Star BD +13°3224: Further Evidence of a Decline in the Period Decrease Rate
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Further optical and infrared (J-filter) observations are presented for the extreme helium star BD +13°3224. No infrared excess, which could have been attributed to a cool companion, is found. Very recent times of maximum light confirm the ephemeris cubic term already proposed. Current models for the evolution of BD +13°3224, while approximately accounting for the period decrease rate (Ṗ), do not explain the decreasing Ṗ indicated by the cubic term.
