| Abstract: |
We have computed stellar evolutionary models for stars in a mass range characteristic of Cepheid variables for metallicities representative of the Magellanic Clouds populations. These calculations are coupled to a linear nonadiabatic stability analysis in order to get self-consistent mass-period-luminosity relationships. We construct period histograms taking into account a mass function and evolutionary time scales, and we compare them to those given by the microlensing surveys EROS1 and OGLE. |
