Book Overview

Variable Stars of Short Period is a book written by Edward Charles Pickering in 1881. The book is a comprehensive study of variable stars with short periods, which are stars that exhibit changes in brightness over a short period of time. Pickering's work is based on his observations of these stars using the Harvard College Observatory's telescope. The book covers the classification, measurement, and analysis of short-period variable stars, including their magnitudes, spectra, and light curves. Pickering also discusses the importance of studying these stars in understanding the structure and evolution of the universe. The book is written in a technical style and is intended for astronomers and other scientists interested in the study of variable stars. It is considered a landmark work in the field of astronomy and remains a valuable resource for researchers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
