A photometric investigation of RV Tauri and yellow semiregular variables
Results are presented for DDO and UBV photoelectric photometry of 52 RVTau and semiregular variables and candidates. CN abundances, effectivetemperatures, surface gravities, absolute visual magnitudes, and massestimates are derived in the framework of the spectroscopic groupingsproposed by Preston et al. (1963). The photometry suggests a furtherdivision of Preston's group A, and a possible physical connection isindicated between this group and the semiregular variables. Thespectroscopic groups are shown to be well separated in the DDOcolor-color diagrams when mean colors are used for individual stars. Anupper limit of about 3 solar masses is determined for stars in eachgroup. A correlation between derived iron abundances and published IRexcesses obtained from flux measurements at 3.6 and 11.3 microns isfound which supports the contention that dust production incircumstellar shells increases with increasing metallicity.
