Abstract

The linear adiabatic pulsation-periods of Mira variable stars have been derived. Approximately 270¹[1]models were calculated for M = 0.7 M_Θ to 2 M_Θ stars with radii from 180 R_Θ to 340 R_Θ and luminosities from 2800 L_Θ to 10,000 L_Θ. The chemical composition of all models is (X,Z) = (0.7,0.02). From the result of this study, linear relations on Luminosity-Period-Mass relationship and luminosity-period-radius-mass relationship have been derived for the fundamental mode. The relation has been tested on a recent data set of Mira stars in the LMC.
