PHOTOELECTRIC UBV PHOTOMETRY OF NORTHERN CEPHEIDS, II
ABSTRACT
New UBV photoelectric observational data on 42 northern Cepheids with periods of 5-10 days
are presented. The period changes and the variations in the light curve of the observed Cepheids
are investigated. No secular light curve variation has been discovered.
The O-C diagrams of CV Mon and RS Ori show a period jump and a subsequent rejump to the
earlier value of the period. These two Cepheids as well as the shorter period ones with a
rejumping period are probably members of binary systems. Another effect can be pointed out in
AW Per and DD Cas which are also members of binary systems: the apparent period changes due to
the orbital motion around the common centre of gravity can be seen. Both the orbital period and
the value of a*sin i can be determined for these latter two stars. The combined effect (i.e. the
effect of the orbital motion and the rejumping period) can be seen in the O-C diagram of the
short period Cepheid SU Cygni.
INTRODUCTION
This paper is the second part of a series dealing with the new UBV photometry of
northern Cepheids performed at the Konkoly Observatory, and it contains the observational
data and O-C diagrams of Cepheids with periods longer than 5 days but shorter than 10 days.
The first part of this Cepheid survey included Cepheids with periods shorter than 5 days
(Szabados 1977, hereinafter this paper is referred to as Paper I). The third part will
cover the longest period Cepheids (P > 10 days).
The original purposes outlined in Paper I were as follows:
1. To search for double-mode Cepheids in the northern sky;
2. To investigate period changes;
3. To examine secular variations of the light curves provided that they can be determined;
4. To obtain photoelectric light curves of those Cepheids which
have not previously been observed photoelectrically.
Since the existence of the beat phenomenon in the case of
Cepheids with periods longer than five days is improbable, the first item may hardly be a
real aim when observing Cepheids with periods as long as 5 days or more.
Item 4 also has less importance because the overwhelming majority of the stars dealt
with in this programme has been observed photoelectrically; however, photoelectric photometry of
several faint Cepheids was carried out for the first time as
recently as in the seventies (Pel 1976, Wachmann 1976). The major
contribution of the present photoelectric observations towards
developing our knowledge about the light curves of the Cepheids
is that the observational points are well spread in phase on the
normal light curves. There are at least a dozen Cepheids in this
sample the periods of which are almost equal to an integer (e.g.
VW Cas: P=5.994d; BK Aur: P=8.002d), thus it is impossible to
obtain a complete light curve of these variables at a given
geographical longitude during one observational season. The present
photometry carried out between 1974 and 1978 yielded reliable
photoelectric light curves for this rather arbitrary group too.
After having revealed the existence of period rejumps in
Paper I, the investigation of period changes is the most important
purpose. The term rejump was introduced in Paper I.
During the course of this present part of the work 42 Cepheids and
one star which subsequently proved to be non-variable
were observed. Of these 43 stars, 19 were observed in three colours
of the UBV system, the other 24 in B and V lights only.
THE OBSERVATIONS
The stars dealt with in this programme were selected from
the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (Kukarkin et al. 1969-
1970) and from the current astronomical literature, with the
restrictions that their declination should be north of 0 and B
magnitude (or mpg for lack of photoelectric observations) at
light minimum brighter than 12.5mag. This sample contains Cepheids
strictions that their declination should be north of 0 and B
of both populations with a period 5d < P < 10d.
The stars investigated are listed in Table 1. The number of
observations on each star, the colours, serial numbers of the
pages where the individual observations and the O-C diagram with
additional remarks on the given star can be found are indicated
in the successive columns. The total number of observations is
804. The star V 1165 Aql is not a Cepheid variable. Judging by
present photometry this star is a non-variable, but very small
amplitude light variations cannot be ruled out. The observational
data and a detailed analysis on V 1165 Aql are published

Figure 1a-f Identification chart
elsewhere (Szabados 1979).
A full description of the observational technique, the
telescopes and filters used can be found in Paper I (p. 6). The V
magnitudes and colour indices of the comparison and check stars
are listed in Table 2. The tie in observations were made with
the aid of UBV standard stars taken from the catalogue of Blanco
et al. (1968). An asterisk instead of the name of the star in
Table 2 denotes that the star is not in the Bonner Durchmusterung,
in which case the identification charts in Fig. 1a-f should
be consulted. In these charts the letter a denotes the comparison
star and the star marked b is the check one. The size of the
charts is about 25'x25' except for VW Cas (40'x40'); north is at
the top.
The comparison between the present photometric system (UBV_{sz})
and Schaltenbrand and Tammann's (1971) standard one (UBV_{scht})
gives the following transformation formulae:
V_{SZ} = 0.997V_{scht} + 0.026 (38 common stars)
B_{SZ} = 0.993B_{scht} + 0.083 (38 common stars)
U_{SZ} = 1.002U_{scht} - 0.021 (17 common stars)
Table 3 contains the observations in alphabetical order of
the constellations. The observations made with the 20" telescope
are marked with asterisks in the column of the Julian Date. Some
unpublished observations made by Prof. L. Detre in 1953 and by
Dr. J. Abaffy in 1967 are also listed in Table 3. Unfortunately,
since the comparison stars used by them are unknown in several
cases these two sets of observations have not been transformed
to the standard system, and only the magnitude differences are
given in the instrumental system.
THE LIGHT CURVES AND PERIOD CHANGES OF THE INDIVIDUAL VARIABLES
This section contains the light curves, the tables and the
graphs of the O-C values and some remarks on the observed Cepheids.
It was not my intention to give the full history of the
variables which would have increased considerably the volume of
this paper. The variables were arranged according to the length
of their period as in Paper I.
The light and colour curves are constructed from the observations

listed in Table 3 using the actual periods available after constructing the O-C
diagrams. The value of the actual period is indicated for each light curve. It is the B
light curve that is shown in the figures instead of the V one because the determination of
the normal maxima was made with the help of the B light curves.
The method of using the other published observational data in constructing the O-C
diagrams is the same as described in Paper I (p. 32). The O-C values determined on the basis
of visual, photographic and photoelectric observations are marked with open circles, filled
circles and triangles, respectively. The size of these marks denotes the weight of the O-C
values to be found in the figures of this section.
The columns in the tables of the O-C residuals for each variable contain the
following data:
1. The moment of normal maximum (or that of median brightness) 2. The corresponding epoch
3. The O-C residual in days
4. The type of observation (vis for visual, pg for photographic and pe for photoelectric
observations)
5. The weight of the O-C residual depending on the type, number and quality of the
observations
6. The source of the observational data. When the name of the observer is not identical
with the name (or one of the names) given in the reference the observer's name is indicated
in the footnote to the table.
The determination of the O-C curves was by a weighted least squares fitting
procedure. The O-C residuals with zero weight are not plotted in the diagrams, those with
0.5 weight are plotted but were usually omitted in the curve fitting procedure (otherwise
the use of the O-C residuals with 0.5 weight is indicated in the remarks relating to the
given variable).
The formula by which the O-C residuals have been calculated is indicated at each
variable. These formulae usually refer to maximum light. If O-C diagrams for both maximum
and median brightnesses are presented, the two different calculated ephemerides are marked
with C_{max} and C_{med}, respectively. O-C diagrams for the median brightness are
published here only if they are fairly complete.
V 386 Cygni
The light and colour curves of this Cepheid which has a blue
Figure 2 B and B-V curves of V 386 Cyg
photometric companion of spectral type B9 (Madore 1977) are shown in Fig. 2. The available
observational material is not too rich. This is the reason for also using the 0.5 weight
points in determining the correct value of the period.
The O-C residuals have been computed by the formula:
C = 2442777.118 + 5.257606d*E
The period of this Cepheid has remained constant since the discovery of its light variation
(see Fig. 3).

BG Lacertae
There is a faint NW companion within the edge of the diaphragm. The present
amplitudes in B and U bands are smaller than those given by Schaltenbrand and Tammann
(1971), which can be attributed to the effect of this optical companion (see Fig. 4).
According to Madore (1977) BG Lac has a B8 type photometric companion. This physical
companion is obviously not identical with the optical companion star.
The O-C residuals plotted in Fig. 5 have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442673.222 + 5.331932d*E
Figure 4 B, B-V and U-B curves of BG Lac

The O-C diagram can be approximated by a straight line which shows the constancy of the
period.

delta Cephei
Figure 6 B, B-V and U-B curves of delta Cep
This star is one of the most frequently observed Cepheid variables. Its light and colour
curves are plotted in Fig. 6. The large number of the photoelectric observational series
made it possible to construct the O-C diagram not only for the maximum brightness but also
for the median brightness.
The O-C residuals for this star have been obtained by the formulae:
C_{max} = 2442756.490 + 5.366270d*E ,
C_{med} = 2442755.850 + 5.366270d*E .
Although several sudden period changes have been reported (e.g. Kukarkin et al. 1969-1970)
the O-C diagram in Fig. 7 can be approximated by a parabolic curve better than by three (or
more)
Figure 7 O-C diagram of delta Cep
straight lines. The equation of the parabolic curve for the maximum brightness is as follows:
C_{par} = 2442756.490 + 5.366270d*E - 7.6*10^{-9}*E^2

CV Monocerotis
This faint Cepheid has five very faint companions. Earlier CV Mon was thought to be
a cluster member (Arp 1960). Under the influence of these surrounding stars the V and B-V
amplitudes derived from the present photometry (see Fig. 8) are smaller than those given by
Schaltenbrand and Tammann (1971). CV Mon has a physical companion with a spectral type of
B7 (Madore 1977). It cannot be excluded that this B7 companion is the closest star among
the visible companions but none of the photometries have so far been able to separate its
photometric influence.
Figure 8 B and B-V curves of CV Mon
Figure 9 O-C diagram of CV Mon
The O-C residuals given in Table 8 were computed using the formula:
C = 2442773.136 + 5.378898d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig 9. can be approximated by two almost parallel straight lines
representing the phenomenon of the rejumping period (or stepwise O-C diagram).
For CV Mon the jump and the subsequent rejump in the period occurred so suddenly
that the intermediate period cannot be determined. The values of the period are:
before J.D. 2436000 P = 5.378782d ,
after J.D. 2436000 P = 5.378898d .

SW Cassiopeiae
Figure 10 B and B-V curves of SW Cas
The light and colour curves of this variable are plotted in Fig. 10. The O-C
diagrams are constructed for both maximum and median brightnesses (Tables 9 and 10, Fig. 11).
The O-C residuals have been calculated using the formulae:
C_{max} = 2442989.590 + 5.440950d*E ,
C_{med} = 2442988.808 + 5.440950d*E .
The period has remained constant since the discovery of the light variation of SW Cas. The
lines fitted to these two O-C diagrams are parallel to each other.

X Lacertae
This star is a small amplitude Cepheid (type Is) but the light curve is not
symmetrical (see Fig. 12). The O-C residuals
Figure 12 B, B-V and U-B curves of X Lac
have been derived using the formulae:
C_{max} = 2442738.132 + 5.444990d*E
C_{med} = 2442737.243 + 5.444990d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig. 13 shows one change in the period:
before J.D. 2429500 P = 5.444212d
after J.D. 2429500 P = 5.444990d
Grigorevski and Motrich (1973) tried to approximate the O-C diagram of X Lac by a
parabolic curve too, but one can see in Fig. 13 that the proper approximation is that using
two straight lines.

RZ Geminorum
There is a very faint southern companion within the edge of the diaphragm. In spite
of this the V and B amplitudes are larger than reported by Schaltenbrand and Tammann (1971).
Madore (1977) pointed out that RZ Gem has a B5 photometric companion.
The O-C residuals have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442714.970 + 5.529286d*E
The O-C diagram can be approximated either by two straight lines (sudden period change), or
by a parabolic line (continuous period change). In the former case the values of the period
are:
before J.D. 2432400 P = 5.529716d ,
after J.D. 2432400 P = 5.529286d .
If a continuous period change is assumed, the equation of the approximate parabola is as follows:
C_{par} = 2442714.920 + 5.529143*E - 8.85d*10^{-8}d*E^2

Unfortunately, there are very few earlier observational data on this small
amplitude Cepheid. The O-C residuals have been
Figure 16 B and B-V curves of V 924 Cyg
calculated with the formula:
C = 2443066.075 + 5.571472d*E
The present period seems to be reliable since it is based on three photoelectric
observational series but we cannot say anything certain about the behaviour of the period
before J.D. 2438000. The systematically larger O-C values before this date may be caused by
the earlier points in the O-C diagram (with a weight of 0.5) not being derived on the basis
of published observations but rather from the published normal maxima.

FM Cassiopeiae
The light and colour curves of this Cepheid can be seen in Fig. 18. The number of
reliable observational series is very small so I was obliged to take into account the O-C
residuals with a weight of 0.5 (except the visual observations) when determining the value
of the period. Finally, the O-C residuals have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442817.713 + 5.809284d*E
The period has remained constant since the discovery of the light variation of FM Cas.

MW Cygni
The light and colour curves of MW Cyg are plotted in Fig. 20. Its period (somewhat
less than six days) is the shortest value when the hump appears on the descending branch of
the light curve.
Figure 20 B and B-V curves of MW Cyg
When determining the correct value of the period all normal maxima listed in Table 16 were
considered except the visual ones. Finally the O-C residuals have been calculated with the
formula:
C = 2442923.839 + 5.954586d*E
There is no sign of period change in the O-C diagram (see Fig. 21), although Tsarevsky
(1967) included this Cepheid among the Cepheids with changing period.

VW Cassiopeiae
This Cepheid has a faint companion SW. The present B-V amplitude is less than given
in the catalogue compiled by Schaltenbrand and Tammann (1971); this may be an effect caused
by this companion.
In the course of determining the correct value of the period the normal maxima with
a weight of 0.5 were also used. Finally the O-C residuals have been derived using the formula:
C = 2442778.693 + 5.993859d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig. 23 shows the constancy of the period.

KL Aquilae
According to Madore (1977) this Cepheid is suspected in having a blue photometric
companion. The light and colour curves of KL Aql shown in Fig. 24 are normal for a Population
I Cepheid but the 2nd Supplement to the G.C.V.S. (Kukarkin et al. 1974) classifies it as a
Population II Cepheid.
Figure 24 B and B-V curves of KL Aql
The O-C residuals have been computed with the formula:
C = 2443338.695 + 6.108015d*E
The period of KL Aql has remained constant since the discovery of its light variation (see
Fig. 25).

FM Aquilae
This Cepheid has a blue photometric companion of spectral type B9 (Madore 1977). As
can be seen from Fig. 26, the U-B amplitude is too small.
Figure 26 B, B-V and U-B curves of FM Aql
Figure 27 O-C diagram of FM Aql
The O-C residuals have been calculated with the formulae:
C_{max} = 2442678.222 + 6.114230d*E
C_{med} = 2442677.559 + 6.114230d*E
The period has been constant since the discovery of its light variation (see Fig. 27).

The light and colour curves of this variable are shown in Fig. 28. When the correct value of
the period was being determined all the normal maxima were considered, i.e. those with low
weight too. The O-C residuals have been derived using the formula:
C = 2442772.924 + 6.118961d*E
The O-C diagram is based on only four points so it is premature to declare the constancy of
the period.

CR Cephei
The variable star CR Cep is a small amplitude Cepheid with a non-symmetrical light
curve (see Fig. 36). The O-C residuals
Figure 36 B and B-V curves of CR Cep
Figure 37 O-C diagram of CR Cep
have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442774.236 + 6.232964d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig. 37 shows one period change. Neither the time of the change in the
period nor the value of the former period can be determined for lack of sufficient number
of points in the O-C diagram. The only certain fact is that the period change occurred
before J.D. 2428000.

Fig. 38. The O-C residuals in Table 26 have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442773.487 + 6.295983d*E
As is shown by the O-C diagram in Fig. 39, the period has changed on one occasion:
before J.D. 2434900 P = 6.295623d
after J.D. 2434900 P = 6.295983d
If the O-C diagram is approximated by a parabolic line (continuous period change), the

X Vulpeculae
The light and colour curves of this variable are shown in
Figure 40 B, B-V and U-B curves of X Vul
Fig. 40. The present U-B amplitude is smaller than expected (Schaltenbrand and Tammann
1971). The O-C residuals have been calculated using the formula:
C = 2442665.932 + 6.319543d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig. 41 shows one period change. Neither the time of the change in the
period nor the value of the former period can be determined since the period change
occurred before J.D. 2427000 when the reliability of the O-C diagram is not good.

AW Persei
The light and colour curves of this Cepheid are shown in Fig. 44. AW Per was
reported to be a component of a spectroscopic binary system (Miller and Preston 1964). On
the basis of the available radial velocity measurements Lloyd Evans (1968) determined the
lowest value of the orbital period to be 1200 days. Using more recent radial velocity
measurements McNamara and Chapman (1977) concluded that the orbital period was longer than
20 years. The presence of the B7 companion can also be pointed out using only photometric
data (Madore 1977).
The O-C residuals have been calculated with the formula:
C = 2442709.059 + 6.463589d*E
If the first point in the O-C diagram in Fig. 45 is real, a period change took place
before J.D. 2426000. It is even more interesting that a simple eye inspection can reveal a
sinusoidal wave in the O-C diagram which is a direct result of the orbital motion of AW Per
around the centre of mass of the binary system. The phenomenon is similar to the case of
FF Aql (Paper I, p. 94). A search for the period of this long term modulation gave
Figure 44 B, B-V and U-B curves of AW Per
Figure 45 O-C diagram of AW Per
P_{orb} = 10300 ą 800 days, as the best result. The resulting light-time diagram versus the
orbital phase is plotted in Fig. 46. In constructing this diagram the O-C values based on
visual observations were averaged into one point. The orbital phases have been computed with
the formula:
Epoch + phase = (J.D. - 2400000)*10300^{-1}
The observed maxima, the corresponding O-C residuals and the orbital phases are listed in
Table 31. The value of a* sin i can be
determined from the amplitude of the O-C variation curve. The result is: a* sin i = 1.6x10^9 km.

CS Monocerotis
There is a faint companion NE of the variable. This may be the reason that the B

The period has been constant since the discovery of the light variation of CS Mon.
AO Aurigae
The light curve plotted in Fig. 49 is the first reliable photoelectric light curve
of this faint Cepheid. When determining the correct value of the period the normal maxima
with a weight of 0.5 were also used. The O-C residuals have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442815.860 + 6.763006d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig. 50 can be approximated by a straight line, i.e. the period is
constant.

eta Aquilae
The light and colour curves of this very bright Cepheid variable are shown in Fig.
51. The V amplitude derived from the
Figure 51 B, B-V and U-B curves of eta Aql
present photometry is less whereas the U-B amplitude is greater than the corresponding
values taken from the catalogue (Schaltenbrand and Tammann 1971).
The large number of photoelectric observational series has made it possible to
construct the O-C diagram not only for the maximum brightness but also for the median
brightness. The O-C residuals have been calculated with the formulae:
C_{max} = 2442794.773 + 7.176735d*E ,
C_{med} - 2442793.855 + 7.176735d*E .
The O-C diagram in Fig. 52 can well be approximated by a parabolic curve, i.e. the period
has been changing continuously since the discovery of the light variation of eta Aql. The
equation of the parabolic curve for the maximum brightness is:
C_{par} = 2442794.773 + 7.176735*E + 2.18*10^{-8}*E^2 .

Remark: 1 Observer: Schonfeld
V 600 Aquilae
The light and colour curves of V 600 Aql are plotted in Fig. 53. The O-C residuals
have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442904.119 + 7.238748d*E
Figure 53 B and B-V curves of V 600 Aql
If the first two points in the O-C diagram (Table 36) are reliable, a period change must
have occurred during an epoch before J.D. 2428000. Unfortunately, neither the epoch of the
period change nor the former value of the period can be determined.

V 336 Aquilae
The B-V amplitude of this Cepheid is smaller (see Fig. 55) than was determined by
Schaltenbrand and Tammann (1971). This is likely to result from the one-sided deviation of
the data points from the normal curve (due to the scatter) which tends to decrease the
amplitude in this particular case.

Figure 55 B and B-V curves of V 336 Aql
The O-C residuals have been derived using the formula:
C = 2443048.216 + 7.303976d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig. 56 shows a constant period thus the possible period variation
reported in the G.C.V.S. (Kukarkin et al. 1969-1970) cannot be confirmed.

BB Herculis
The classification of this variable is doubtful. The large radial velocity suggests
its belonging to Population II (CW group) (2nd Suppl. to the G.C.V.S.; Kukarkin et al. 1974),
but the light and colour curves (see Fig. 57) are common for a Population I or classical
Cepheid. The variable has a faint companion within the edge of the diaphragm.
Figure 57 B and B-V curves of BB Her
The O-C residuals have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442679.289 + 7.507945d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig. 58 shows one change in the period:
before J.D. 2430700 P = 7.507696d ,
after J.D. 2430700 P = 7.507945d .

HR 690
This recently discovered Cepheid (Henriksson 1977) in constellation Perseus has
extremely low amplitudes (see Fig. 59). It would be very important to know whether this
variable is a physical member of the h and X Persei but as far as the photoelectric V
magnitudes allow one to draw a conclusion, HR 690 would be overluminous at the distance
of the above-mentioned clusters, i.e. its belonging to either cluster is doubtful.
Figure 59 B, B-V and U-B curves of HR 690
The O-C diagram of HR 690 cannot be constructed because no other observations are
available. Unfortunately, Henriksson's (1977) observations - which might well be useful in
refining the period - have remained unpublished. Using only the present photometric data,
however, I determined a slightly shorter period: 7.552 instead of the value 7.572 given by
Henriksson.
RS Orionis
The light and colour curves of this Cepheid are shown in Fig. 60. The variable has a
B6 photometric companion (Madore 1977). The O-C residuals have been computed using the
ephemeris:

Remark: 1 Observer: Lasebnik
The O-C diagram in Fig. 61 can be approximated by two almost parallel lines showing
the phenomenon of the rejumping period. Both the period jump and the subsequent rejump
occurred between J.D. 2433000 and J.D. 2435000. The values of the period during the other
intervals are as follows:
before J.D. 2433000 P = 7.566836d ,
after J.D. 2435000 P = 7.566881d .

GH Cygni
Figure 62 B and B-V curves of GH Cyg
The light and colour curves of this Cepheid variable are shown in Fig. 62. In order
to obtain a precise value of the period I was obliged to take into account also the normal
maxima with 0.5 weight when fitting a line to the points in the O-C diagram (Fig. 63).
The O-C residuals have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442743.743 + 7.817930d*E
The period has been constant since the discovery of GH Cyg's light variation.

VY Cygni
The amplitudes of both the light and the colour variations (see Fig. 64) are smaller
than given by Schaltenbrand and Tammann (1971). Moreover, the descending branch of the light
curve
Figure 64 B and B-V curves of VY Cyg
differs from that given by Nikolov (1968). The variable has a B7 photometric companion
(Madore 1977).
The O-C residuals listed in Tables 41 and 42 have been calculated using the formulae:
C_{max} = 2443045.282 + 7.856982d*E ,
C_{med} = 2443044.388 + 7.856982d*E ,
for the moments of the maximum and the median brightness, respectively. The O-C diagram in
Fig. 65 shows the constancy of the period.

RX Camelopardalis
Figure 66 B, B-V and U-B curves of RX Cam
The amplitude of the light curve in the B band plotted in Fig. 66 as well as that of
the V light curve is smaller than the corresponding value given by Schaltenbrand and Tammann
(1971). The O-C diagrams could be constructed for both the maximum and the median
brightnesses. The O-C residuals have been calculated by the formulae:
C_{max} = 2442766.583 + 7.912024d*E ,
C_{med} = 2442765.524 + 7.912024d*E .
The Cepheid RX Cam has a constant period (see Fig. 67) but a long term wave-like variation
can be suspected as if RX Cam were a member of a binary system. In the absence of definite
evidence (e.g. spectroscopic or photometric), it cannot be stated that this variable is
really a component of a binary system.

U Vulpeculae
The light and colour curves of this variable are plotted in Fig. 70. The period of
this Cepheid is very close to eight days, thus a reliable light curve can only be obtained
during a time interval longer than one observing season. The lack of the complete light
curve was the reason for the epoch of the minimum brightness being given in the G.C.V.S.
(Kukarkin et al. 19691970) instead of that of the light maximum.
The O-C residuals have been derived using the formula:
C = 2442526.290 + 7.990629d*E
The period of this variable has been constant since the discovery of its light variation.

DL Cassiopeiae
The amplitude of the light and colour curves shown in Fig. 72 are smaller than would
be expected from the catalogue compiled by Schaltenbrand and Tammann (1971). The Cepheid DL
Cas is a member of the open cluster NGC 129 (Arp et al. 1959).
Figure 72 B, B-V and U-B curves of DL Cas
Figure 73 O-C diagram of DL Cas
The O-C residuals have been computed with the ephemeris:
C = 2442780.334 + 8.000669d*E
Although DL Cas was reported as having a changing period (Hoffleit 1971, Briggs 1978),
the O-C diagram in Fig. 73 does not confirm the variability in the period.

S Sagittae
The light and colour curves of this Cepheid are plotted in Fig. 76. S Sge is a
component of a binary system (Herbig and Moore 1952) with an orbital period of 676.2d.
Figure 76 B, B-V and U-B curves of S Sge
The O-C residuals have been computed with the formula:
C = 2442678.792 + 8.382086d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig. 77 shows one change in the period:
before J.D. 2418000 P = 8.381968d ,
after J.D. 2418000 P = 8.382086d .
Unfortunately, the light-time effect caused by the orbital motion around the common centre
of gravity cannot be seen in the O-C diagram. The possible causes of this imperfection are
as follows:
- the light-time effect itself has to be small due to the comparatively short orbital period;
- the pulsation period is not short enough to reduce the uncertainty in determining the
phase of the individual normal maxima;
- the individual observational series sometimes
covers an interval longer than one year. This makes it difficult to point out an effect
which has a periodicity with a value shorter than two years.

IX Cassiopeiae
According to the G.C.V.S. (Kukarkin et al. 1969-1970) this Cepheid belongs to
Population II. The light and colour curves of IX Cas are shown in Fig. 80 . The actual value
of the period (P = 9.1582) has been determined using the latest photographic
Figure 80 B and B-V curves of IX Cas
and the recent photoelectric observations (see Table 51), but this value is not sufficiently
accurate for deriving the O-C residuals. For this reason the O-C residuals have been
computed by the formula:
C = 2442779.743 + 9.153375d*E ,
where the value of the period is based only on the photoelectric observations. The O-C
diagram in Fig. 81 shows continuous change in the period after J.D. 2428700. Before J.D.
2419000 the epochs of the normal maxima are uncertain because of the unknown trend of the
O-C curve between J.D. 2419000 and J.D. 2428000, i.e. during the gap in the observations.

FN Aquilae
The V and B amplitudes of the light variation in this Cepheid are smaller than given
by Schaltenbrand and Tammann (1971). The O-C residuals have been calculated using the
formulae:
C_{max} = 2442796.744 + 9.481603d*E ,
C_{med} = 2442794.772 + 9.481603d*E .
The O-C diagram in Fig. 83 shows a constant period in contrast with the period variation
reported by Kukarkin et al. (1974).

DD Cassiopeiae
The light and colour curves of this Cepheid are shown in Fig. 84. There is a B4
photometric companion (Madore 1977). The O-C residuals have been computed using the formula:
C = 2442780.493 + 9.812027d*E
The O-C diagram in Fig. 85 shows one change in the period:
before J.D. 2418600 P = 9.807272d ,
after J.D. 2418600 P = 9.812027d .
The O-C diagram also shows some sinusoidal variation which is
Figure 84 B and B-V curves of DD Cas
Figure 85 O-C diagram of DD Cas
the result of the light-time effect (orbital motion of DD Cas around the common centre of
gravity of the binary system). A search for the orbital period gave the value:
P_{orb} = 8500 ą 1000 days which seems to be a reasonable value for a pair consisting of a
supergiant and an early type star. The O-C residuals used in determining the orbital period
as well as the corresponding orbital phases are listed in Table 55. The arbitrary zero point
of the phase calculation is J.D. 2400000. The plot of O-C variation vs. the orbital phase is
seen in Fig. 86 . The value of a* sin i can be determined from the amplitude of this curve:
a* sin i = 6.5*10^9 km .

GENERAL REMARKS
Period changes
The investigation of period changes of Cepheids within the period interval 5 - 10
days is of great importance because a comprehensive study of their period changes has not
been made so far. The most authentic paper in this field (Parenago 1956) contains only seven
Cepheids within this period range; four of these seven are investigated in the present paper
too. The stability of the period of the remaining more than thirty Cepheids in this sample
has not, to all intents and purposes, previously been analyzed.
From among the 42 Cepheids in this sample 19 stars showed variability in their
period. Two of them ( eta Aql and delta Cep) have a parabolic O-C graph. This kind of period change
may be attributed to the evolution of the stars across the instability strip. The period
changes are sudden in most cases as was the case for the short period Cepheids too (Paper I).
The Cepheids showing "stepwise" O-C variations (i.e. rejumping period) can be
included with this group. There are two variables in this sample showing this phenomenon,
viz. CV Mon (see Fig. 9) and RS Ori (see Fig. 61). It is most interesting that both CV Mon
and RS Ori were reported to have a photometric companion (Madore 1977). Moreover, three stars
from Paper I which belong to the group of Cepheids with a rejumping period (SU Cyg, V 532
Cyg, SZ Tau) are also members of binaries according to Madore. The only Cepheid with a
rejumping period that is not included in Madore's list is DT Cyg. Lloyd Evans (1968),
however, pointed out that a change of -3 km/s in normal radial velocity occurred in DT Cyg.
Further spectroscopic observations would be highly desirable to reveal any periodic variation
in the radial velocity of DT Cyg.
The above mentioned items of evidence make it possible to conclude that any Cepheid
showing a rejumping period is a member of a binary system. If the orbital plane of a binary
system is nearly parallel to the line of sight, the binary nature can be discovered on the
basis of the periodic variation of the radial velocities. The binary motion, however, can
also cause apparent period changes due to the simple light-time effect. The numerical
treatment of this effect on period changes in RR Lyrae stars was published by Coutts (1971).
The apparent period changes in Cepheids caused by the binary motion were first
studied in Paper I (FF Aql). The present sample of Cepheids contains two known spectroscopic
binaries (AW Per and S Sge). Unfortunately, the apparent period changes in S Sge cannot be
detected, partly because the value of the orbital period is too short (less than two years).
The value of the orbital period of the system containing AW Per was not known earlier. The
periodic O-C variations made it possible to determine the orbital period: P_{orb} = 10300
days (see Figs. 45 and 46). This method is, of course, less accurate than the usual method
of determining the orbital period on the basis of radial velocity measurements. Nevertheless,
the "O-C variation method" is very useful if there are not enough spectroscopic data as is
the case for DD Cas. The binary nature of this Cepheid has not been detected
spectroscopically but it can be realized photometrically (Madore 1977). The O-C diagram
constructed on the basis of the available normal maxima shows a periodicity with
P_{orb} = 8500 days (see Figs. 85 and 86). Some long period fluctuation can also be
suspected in the O-C diagram of RX Cam (see Fig. 67), but there is no evidence as to its
binary nature.
The apparent period change in a periodic variable which is a component of a binary
system can only be detected if the inclination of the orbit differs significantly from 0 degree,
otherwise the binary nature can only be discovered photometrically (if the companion has an
early spectral type - Madore 1977). Since the Cepheids with a rejumping period are thought
to be members of binary systems, it may be that one can detect both the apparent
period changes due to the orbital motion and the stepwise period changes (rejumping period)
in the same system. A check inspection of the O-C diagram for SU Cyg (Paper I, p. 77) was
able to reveal a strict periodicity in the O-C variations after the rejump of the period.
The orbital period for SU Cyg is P_{orb} = 3250ą100 days. The normal maxima, the
corresponding O-C residuals and orbital phases (with an arbitrary zero point) are collected
in Table 56. The moments of maxima and the O-C values are taken from Table 27 in Paper I,
supplemented with several more recent data (Evans, 1976; Fernie, 1979; Szabados unpublished).
The value of a* sin i can be determined from the amplitude of the O-C variation
(see Fig. 87): a* sin i = 1.5*10^9 km. Unfortunately, SU Cyg is exceptional. In other
Cepheid-binaries we can only see either the rejumping period or the wave-like apparent
period variation, and there are a lot of Cepheids listed by Madore (1977) as binaries but
their O-C diagrams are incomplete and we are thus unable to prove the binary nature.
Figure 87 O-C variations of SU Cyg due to the orbital motion
In the light of the above mentioned results, one of the conclusions drawn in Paper I
has to be changed. In Paper I the stepwise O-C diagram was declared to be observational
evidence supporting the hypothesis on the evolution of Cepheids along the lines of constant
period. The real state of affairs is that the period of Cepheids in binary systems tends to
be constant, but a phase jump in the light variation of the Cepheid (i.e. a jump in the period
and a subsequent rejump) may sometimes occur, which is certainly caused by the influence of
the companion star.

The instability of the period
The quantity Delta E|Delta P|/P , first suggested by Parenago (1956) as being a
measure of the instability of the period, has also been computed as was done in Paper I
(p. 109). Here Delta E is the number of epochs during which the period remained constant.
Neither the sudden period jumps in CV Mon and RS Ori nor the apparent period changes due to
the orbital motion of the binary Cepheids have been taken into consideration in these
computations. Table 57 gives a short summary on the instability of the period for different
groups of Cepheids. The successive columns contain the following data:
1. Name of the group
2. Average value of Delta E|Delta P|/P
3. Average value of Delta E
4. Average value of the period of Cepheids on which basis the preceding parameters are
derived
5. Number of investigated Cepheids in this group
6. Abbreviation of the name of the group in Table 57

IX Cas are omitted from the statistics the corresponding data in the last line would be:
\overline{Delta E|DeltaP|/P = 0.19, \overline P = 6.84d. This difference shows that the
data on W Vir type variables are not to be taken seriously since the number of Population II
Cepheids in this sample is too small. The measure of the instability of the period for the
small amplitude Cepheids is somewhat smaller than for their shorter period group in Paper I.
This means that the instability of the period of the small amplitude Cepheids does not
increase with the increase in the value of the period. This evidence supports the hypothesis
that the small amplitude Cepheids must be separated from their counterparts with normal
amplitude (see Paper I, p. 108). The increasing instability with the increase in the period
can be seen in the case of the normal amplitude Cepheids when comparing the corresponding
data from the present Table 57 and Table 44 in Paper I: at an average period of 4.1d the
measure of the instability is 0.03 , and for P = 6.9d the instability is 0.12 . All these
data, however, are affected by the rather uncertain value of \overline{Delta E}. In most
cases the value of Delta E is only a lower limit and its certainly larger real value can only be
determined if more period changes are observed.
