Why are the 'Fixed Stars' so FIXED?

The latest one is interesting. It models an tidally
distored, egg shaped star to produce the presumed
cepheid 'overtone' effect. Makes one rethink whether or
not cepheids really DO go huff puff, eh?

You STILL haven't provided evidence that you can
simultaneously fit luminosity and radial velocity
curves.

I have. You didn't join my conversations with George.

***** SHOW YOUR RADIAL VELOCITY FITS *****

Not just that Jerry since there is no way to distinguish
the VDoppler and ADoppler terms from just velocity and
luminosity, what he needs to do is show that he can fit
this curve for radius:

And from that deduce whether the luminosity matches
the velocity or the acceleration.

You have not presented any satisfactory SIMULTANEOUS
fits of luminosity and radial velocity for any star.

He won't ever do it as it proves his claim regarding
Cepheids to be false: he _can_ get a rough fit of the
luminosity to the velocity but not to the acceleration
which is what he is currently saying is the cause.
