Variable star in the constellation Perseus
HR 1170 , also known asHD 23728 andV376 Persei , is a star about 220light years from the Earth, in the constellationPerseus .[ 1] It is a 5thmagnitude star, so it will be faintly visible to thenaked eye of an observer far fromcity lights . It is a variable star, whose brightness varies slightly from magnitude 5.77 to 5.91.[ 2]
Alight curve for V376 Persei, plotted fromTESS data[ 10] Michel Breger announced that HR 1170 is aDelta Scuti variable star in 1969, based on observations taken over 6 hours and 10 minutes on October 13, 1967. He reported that it varied with a mean amplitude of 0.08 magnitudes, over a period of 2.2 hours.[ 11] In 1970 it was given thevariable star designation V376 Persei.[ 12]
Early investigations of HR 1170 showed that it has more than one pulsation period,[ 13] as is true for most Delta Scuti stars,[ 14] and the light curve shows the different periodsbeating with each other. Many investigators have tried to determine the modes of oscillation present in this star.[ 15] [ 16] [ 17] [ 18] [ 19] [ 20] [ 21] All but one[ 19] of these studies find only two significant periods. All agree that one of the periods is approximately 2.386 hours, but the studies do not agree on the second period.[ 21] There is also no agreement as to whether the pulsations are radial, nonradial or a combination of the two, though most of the later studies, which examine data taken over a longer time window, conclude that at least one of the pulsation modes is nonradial.
