Comparison of Colour Curves of Mira Stars of Spectrum M and S
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 August 2015
Abstract
Colour variations for Mira stars of spectrum Me and Se are deduced from the two micron survey of Neugebauer and Leighton and concurrent visual observations of the same stars.
The colours change cyclically during the periodic change of brightness. Colour is a function of maximal spectrum and also of period. Mira stars of class Se are bluer than those of Me of similar period.
