Abstract

AbstractWe present the results of several numerical experiments aimed at testing the dependence of theoretical observables predicted by Cepheid hydrodynamical models on the equation of state (EOS). We focus our attention on nonlinear and time-dependent Cepheid convective models at solar chemical composition. We find that current predictions for both the blue and red edge of the instability strip present a mild dependence on the EOS. The same outcome applies to the morphology of the lightcurves.
