Except for supergiants and cool stars with effective temperature Te<4000K a large grid of model atmospheres is available in the literature (Kurucz, 1997 for the latest versions). The conversion of theoretical fluxes to observational magnitude and colour indices has been solved (e.g. for Johnson and Kron-Cousins photometries, Castelli, 1999) opening the way to a determination of the atmospheric parameters effective temperature, Te, and surface gravity if broad band photometry is available for the target star.
The stellar angular diameter can be derived in
the following manner from atmospheric models. Monochromatic flux
F{lambda}(0)
of the models at optical depth
{tau}=0
is given in tabular form for a large grid of
Te,
g,
metallicity
[M],
etc., furthermore, by integrating
F{lambda}(0)
for a number of photometric systems the fluxes
FX(0)
were computed in physical units
erg s-1 cm-2
as well, and the corrections from interstellar
absorption, reddening were included (Kurucz, 1997).
X
represents the photometric band, e.g.
V
in the Johnson system. On the other hand, observed physical fluxes,
IX,
of stars in band
X
can be derived by using the absolute flux calibration of Vega
(Tüg et al., 1977). If the interstellar extinction is
AX
magnitude, the half angular diameter of a spherical (i.e. non-distorted)
star can be derived from the simple formula
where
d
is the distance to the star,
R
is the radius of
{tau}=0
(Barcza, 2003).
For giant, main sequence, or white dwarf stars the stellar atmosphere
is a thin layer in comparison with
R.
The gravitational acceleration
is practically constant in the atmosphere, i.e. at
r~R,
where
{rho}(r), p(r), M, G
are density, pressure, mass, and the Newtonian gravitational constant,
respectively. The surface gravity,
g(R),
is an important parameter of the static atmospheric models given
conventionally as
log|g|
and it can be used to weigh a star if the stellar radius,
R,
is known.
Relation (eq2) was applied for a number of non-variable stars
enhancing our knowledge on stellar masses: e.g. for white
dwarfs purely from
log|g(R)|
of model atmospheres
and
R
Mwd=0.480±0.014
average mass was derived (McMahan, 1989) for a sample of 53 stars
while other methods gave somewhat larger mass,
Mwd=0.58±0.10
for 64 stars (Koester et al., 1979).
Problems, dependence of g, {theta}, M on E(B-V),[M] were discussed in numerous papers, e.g. Kinman & Castelli (2002), Decin et al. (2003). Accuracy of the data from broad band photometry is inferior to that from fine analysis of spectra or interferometry, respectively, and M can be determined much better from binary orbits. However, if the more accurate methods are not available, the photometric determination of g, {theta}, and M must be appreciated.
The main parameters of atmospheric models are Te, g, [M], and in addition to them the interstellar reddening, extinction (e.g. E(B-V), AX) must be known. From observational point of view colour indices, Ci, (i=1,2,...) are the input parameters and the inverse problem of ordering a model to them must be solved. In optimal cases the typical errors of interpolation are 0.1 in log |g| while a few hundredth in FX, respectively, however, the successful solution depends on the shape of the functions Te(C1,...) and log|g(C1,...)|. The final step is that theoretical FX(C1,...) belonging to the selected model must be compared with IX from observed magnitudes according to (eq1).
From inspecting the Kurucz tables some general rules can be inferred, we mention a few of them. For main sequence or giant stars UBV photometry must be preferred if 7000 < Te < 104 K while for cooler stars BVIC gives reliable results as well. Below Te=9000 K the dependence of log|g| on U-B becomes more pronounced, U-B itself is sensitive to [M] because of the appearance of metallic lines in ultraviolet. In favourable cases Te and g can be determined from a two colour diagram if [M], E(B-V) were already known while the procedure is more uncertain if [M] and E(B-V) must be estimated from colour indices as well, in this case more than two colour indices are necessary.
To demonstrate reliability of the method, some date are given in Table 1: {theta} was derived from observed V, B-V, U-B (Hoffleit, 1982) by using FV(U-B,B-V) of the Kurucz models while for comparison the value {theta}HB is given from intensity interferometry corrected for limb darkening (Hanbury Brown et al., 1974). Using the Hipparcos parallaxes (ESA, 1997) R=3.086×1013{theta}/{pi} km was calculated and the mass was obtained by (eq2) from log|g(U-B,B-V)|. It can be noted that the weakest sampling of the spectrum is provided by (U-B,B-V) since the wavelength interval ~360-540 nm is covered in this case. Of course an inclusion of other colour indices could improve the values of {theta},log|g|.

For pulsating stars with periods exceeding 0.1 day the characteristic time of changes of the main atmospheric parameters Te, ge, FX is long in comparison with the formation of radiative (and convective) equilibrium, therefore, the static atmospheric models account satisfactorily for the changes of ge and {theta} as a function of pulsation phase {phi} (Buonaura et al., 1985). The subscript in ge(=-{rho}(r){nabla}p(r)>0) indicates that this is an effective outward acceleration produced by the pressure gradient in the atmosphere. On appropriately selected two colour diagrams the loop of a variable star gives logge({phi}), Te({phi}), FX({phi}) etc. of the models while photometric observations can be reduced to IX({phi}) giving finally {theta}({phi}) by (eq1).
If
{theta}({phi}j), j=1,2,...,N
points are available in a sufficient number to numerical differentiation
of
{theta}({phi})
the angular acceleration can be converted to
R(t)={theta}(t)d,
Now the main innovation is that
R({phi}j),
The fundamental stellar parameters: distance and mass
(Barcza, 2003) follow from (eq3) by elementary operations.
The apparent accelerations
Ra
can be neglected if the characteristic spatial extension of the
atmosphere - i.e. the size of the interval
0<={tau}Rosseland<=1
varies slightly during the whole pulsation cycle.
If there are more than two standstills, then
i>=3 in (eq3). Eventual different values of
M,d
from
i=1,3,
i=2,3
etc. can indicate e.g. non-radial pulsation because radial pulsation
was assumed throughout the procedure outlined here.
The fundamental stellar parameters equilibrium luminosity and temperature
(Carney et al., 1992) are obtained from
{theta}({phi}),Te({phi}),d
by
where
{sigma}
is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant,
Teq
differs slightly from the average effective temperature
<Te({phi})>.
Leq,Teq allow to locate a variable star
in theoretical Hertzsprung-Russell diagram: of course on the basis of
[colours-Te, FX]
calibration of the used atmospheric models.
In the BW method the radius change is derived from integrating the radial
velocity curve and it is equated with
{theta}d.
The kinematic equation
must be solved for
d
where
pp
is the projection factor of converting radial to pulsation velocity and
v{gamma}
is the barycentric velocity of the star.
Physical input comes from the time-dependent projection factor. A much more
serious uncertainty of kinematic nature is imported in this procedure by
the error
{Delta}v{gamma}.
If
{Delta}v{gamma} << {overline}|v{gamma}-vradial(t)|
a negligible error is propagated into
{delta}R,
however, it is problematic to achieve this desired accuracy
because the observed radial velocities are an integral of the radial
component of true, non-uniform motions in the atmosphere contaminated by
apparent velocity changes from varying opacity during phases of different
compression. The difficulties from the uncertain value of
v{gamma}
could be circumvented by differentiating
pp(t)vradial(t)
and substituting it for
{theta}d
in (eq3). However, because of
low number, large scatter of the observed radial velocities, and
eventual time dependence of
pp(t)
this principally correct use of (eq3) cannot result in
d,M
of acceptably small error.
By using {theta},{theta},ge in (eq3) radial velocity observations and their problematic conversion to radius changes are not necessary at all at the price of differentiating {theta}({phi}) twice plus more physical input: ge({phi}) and the assumption of radial momentum balance must be used. Finally d and M are obtained by solving algebraic equations. The method was described in detail and applied for the RRab star SU Dra by Barcza (2003). We mention two remarkable details from this study. (i) At minimum radius, i.e. at maximum compression in the atmosphere, ge=50.1 ms-2 >> GM/R2~8 ms-2 reduces (eq3) to d < ge/{theta} giving d < 718pc. This upper value is very close to d=647pc from the solution of (eq3) for three observed standstills. From them the unequivocal d,M show that a non-radial mode, if there is any, is negligible in comparison with the radial oscillation of SU Dra. (ii) During a time interval t the small uncertainty {Delta}v{gamma}~+5.9km s-1~0.04v{gamma} (Liu & Janes, 1990 vs. Oke et al., 1962) leads to a phase dependent error {Delta}R=pp{Delta}v{gamma}t<=3.43×105km (~(Rmax-Rmin)/2 !) which has a considerable effect on d. If the method by Liu & Janes (1990) is followed to solve the kinematic equation, the increment of d is 1.26 from {Delta}v{gamma}=5.9 km s-1. This results in correction <MVmag>=0.78->0.28 for the magnitude average absolute magnitude. (Roughly this is the difference between the short and long extragalactic distance scales - Gratton, 1998. The distance 815 pc corresponding to the long distance scale is ruled out by d < 718 pc.)
Now we apply the method for the RRc variable T Sex. Good quality photoelectric observational material was collected from the literature, the sources are given in Table 2.

The periods given by TS58, PP64, EE73, BM88, LJ89 indicated period changes of O(10-6). To clarify it string length minimization (SLM) was applied, since good conversion of the observations to average light curve and colour-colour loops is crucial to determine {theta}({phi}),ge({phi}). (The adaptation of SLM to pulsating stars was described by Barcza (2002), the notation of this paper will be used here. The essence of SLM is that first the segments k=1,2,... of the observed V magnitudes are projected onto the phase axis {phi}, 0 <={phi}<=1 by the saw tooth function which is perturbed by a term {delta}k=(O-C)k << P0 accounting for the phase shift of segment k and next the neighbouring points are connected by straight strings. Finally the normalized sum {nu}l of the string lengths is minimized numerically as a function of period P0 and phase shifts {delta}1,....)
The
V
file contains 1149 observations in 29 segments, SLM gave for the maxima
with
P0=0.3247796±0.0000032
and the values
{delta}k
in Table 2. The summed string length was
{nu}l0(P0,{delta}=0)=0.330
with standard deviation
SD=0.069
magnitude, the folded light curve belonging to it is plotted in Fig. 1a.
Applying the values
{delta}k
of Table 2 reduced
{nu}l(P0,{delta})
to 0.062 with
SD(P0,{delta})=0.012
mag, dots of Fig. 1b are a plot of the folded light curve, its
SD=0.012
does not exceed the expected random error of a
V
point, it is lower than the claimed amplitude 0.028, 0.015 mag for the
second and third periods of T Sex (Hobart et al., 1991). Thus, the conclusion must
be drawn that between
HJD 2434311-2447488
the light curve of T Sex can perfectly be reproduced if
the light curve segments in Fig. 1a are shifted to the
HJDmax
given by (eq9). The colour indices were shifted by
{delta}k
of the segment, Figs. 1c-f are their plots. The line in Figs. 1b-f was
obtained by fitting high order
(<=9)
polynomials to the points. These
drawn light and colour curves were used to construct colour-colour loops
and to interpolate the physical parameters of the Kurucz models.
Two remarks on the homogenization of the colour curves. (1) In U-B of segments 5,6,7 a zero point correction +0.08 was applied while for 8,9,10 it was +0.05 in order to bring the TS58 observations in coincidence with those of PP64 and LJ89. (2) The Johnson V-R,V-I colours of BM88 and BM92 were converted to V-RC,V-IC by Taylor's (1986) empirical formulae.
The colour-colour loops (U-B,B-V),(U-B,V-RC),(U-B,V-IC),(B-V,V-IC) could be used to interpolate Te({phi}), logge({phi}), FV({phi}), FRC({phi}), BC({phi}). Using a midpoint formula the half angular velocity {dot}{theta} and acceleration {theta} were determined from {theta}({phi}). Fig. 2 is a plot of the results for E(B-V)=0.095,[M]=-1.2. From the different loops the scatter of logge was the largest: ±0.11,±0.03 at {phi}=0.3,0.9, respectively, the scatter in FV,FRC,Te was <=0.02. Therefore, logge, {theta}, Te were averaged at each {phi} from the four loops. The scatters result in an error of ~0.15 for the derived mass and distance if one pair of standstills is used.

The standstills of the atmosphere were found at {phi}~0.31,0.56,0.65,0.90 by searching for zero average angular velocity {overline}{dot}{theta}({phi})~0. {theta},logge were averaged here in an interval {Delta}{phi}~0.02 (i.e. ~10 min). Table 3 reports the results for some values of E(B-V)=0.095,[M]=-1.2,-1.0.
The characteristic size of the atmosphere is ~104 km, Ra << ge, therefore, Ra can be neglected.
<Te({phi})>,Teq and from pairs of standstills AD,BD,CD the average d, M, R, Leq are given in Table 4 to some values of E(B-V). The estimated errors from the averaging are in accordance with that of the interpolation of logge, the other quantities propagate negligible errors in (eq4),(eq5).
The strong dependence of Te({phi}),logge({phi}) and the derived d,M on E(B-V) is a surprising result of this study while the value of [M] is of secondary importance. E(B-V)=0.05±0.02 by Liu & Janes (1990) gives very small d,M which cannot be reconciled with our present day theoretical knowledge on RR Lyrae or other type of pulsating stars. Reddening E(B-V)=0.07 and 0.09 were suggested by Hobart et al. (1991) and Hemenway (1975), respectively, our finding is that E(B-V)=0.09-0.1 is the only possible choice.
Te({phi}),logge({phi}) of the present study are significantly higher by some 650 K and ~0.4 than those of Liu & Janes (1990). Since essentially the same Kurucz tables were used we attribute the difference to the different philosophy of the interpolation procedure:
The values of the fundamental parameters
logTeq=3.891,
Figs. 3a-c are plots of the variable acceleration, velocity, radius in absolute units for a pulsation cycle if d=530 pc. The sharp undulation of the curves in 0.72 < {phi}< 0.78 is not real, it originates from the interpolation artifact indicated in the caption to Fig. 2.
There is a systematic difference in the
vradial({phi})
curves of Barnes et al. (1988), Tifft & Smith (1958), and Liu & Janes (1989):
v{gamma}=38,
On speculation level the extreme sensitivity of the BW
method on
{Delta}v{gamma}
may be guessed as the main source of the discrepant
d
of Liu & Janes (1989) which was propagated into their
M,
The product pp[v{gamma}-vradial({phi})] is the comparable quantity with {dot}R plotted in Fig. 3b. The spectral lines originate from 0 < {tau}Rosseland < 0.4, therefore, we expect pp|v{gamma}-vradial({phi})|< |{dot}R({phi})|. It is satisfied if pp(t)~1, however, the large scatter of the radial velocities gives weak basis for this very small value. Remarkable is that the most accurate radial velocities i.e. those of Liu & Janes (1989) show small humps at the extreme values of {dot}R at {phi}~0.2,0.4,0.6 and {dot}Rmax-{dot}Rmin agrees better with the extreme values of v{gamma}-vradial if v{gamma}=25 km s-1.
The rather loose correlation of {dot}R and 25-vradial({phi}) is similar to that found in SU Dra (Barcza, 2003) and it raises a serious question concerning the basic equation (eq8) of the BW method. A qualitative explanation can be guessed from gas dynamics and the technique of measuring radial velocity.
The purely photometrically derived fundamental parameters of T Sex (see Table 4) have been found from ATLAS atmospheric models of Kurucz (1997) and their calibration to stellar photometric systems (Castelli, 1999). They have been found to be in consensus with our knowledge on stellar models and pulsation theory of asymptotic giant branch stars. In addition to bridging over these remote branches of astrophysics some details have been revealed on RR Lyrae type pulsation: at the RRc variable T Sex fine structure, definite footprint of two shocks have been found in the variable stellar radius R({phi}) (i.e. in the distance of zero optical depth from the stellar centre). In a previous study of SU Dra similar details were found concerning the fine structure of the atmospheric pulsation: there is at least one pair of temporal, intermediate, minor standstills of the pulsating atmosphere between maximum and minimum extension. This seems to be a common feature of RRab and RRc stars at phase ~0.55, it was not considered (or it was smoothed out) in the previous BW studies, presumably because it is a sub-oscillation in the upper stellar atmosphere which is scarcely reflected in the radial velocities. (The radial velocities give information on the motion of the deeper layers.) To derive the fundamental parameters the less accurate radial velocity observations and their problematic conversion to radius changes had not to be used at all, however, an indication of eventual variable barycentric velocity of T Sex has arisen.
