Long-term photometry of M3 RR Lyrae

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The period-change behaviour of 134 RR Lyrae stars in the globular cluster Messier 3 (M3) is investigated on the ~120yr time-base of the photometric observations.

Description

The mean period-change rates ({beta}~~0.01d/Myr) of the subsamples of variables exhibiting the most regular behaviour are in good agreement with theoretical expectations based on horizontal branch stellar evolution models. However, a large fraction of variables show period changes that contradict the evolutionary expectations.
