Abstract

On the basis of observational data (Breger, 1979), a radial pulsation mode of 83 Delta Scuti stars is estimated in two ways. These stars can pulsate in four lowest modes—F, 1H, 2H, 3H— and, perhaps, in 4H and 5H. Our earlier suggestion—that the apparent heterogeneity of these objects in both the period-luminosity plane and the period-frequency distribution may be explained by means of pulsations in various modes—is confirmed. Semi-empirical period-luminosity relations for the four lowest modes are derived and the semi-empirical period ratios are compared with the theoretical ones.
