Seismic test of the mass-radius relationship of hydrogen-atmospheric white dwarf stars
摘要
The pulsation of white dwarfs provides crucial information on stellar parameters for understanding the atmosphere and interior structure of these stars. In this study, we present a comprehensive statistical analysis of known ZZ Ceti stars from historical literature. Our dataset includes stellar parameters and oscillation properties from 339 samples, with 194 of them having undergone asteroseismological analysis. We investigated the empirical instability strip of ZZ Ceti stars and confirmed the linear relationship between temperature and weighted mean pulsation periods (WMP). We found that the WMP distribution is well-described with two groups of stars with peak values at
