Abstract

We investigated the phase-dependent relationships among luminosity, temperature, and radius in select High-Amplitude δ Scuti (HADS-type) variable stars using archived photometric data from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). Light curves were phase-folded, effective temperatures were estimated from color indices, and stellar radii were derived assuming blackbody radiation. The analysis showed that stars with similar luminosity amplitudes exhibited different temperature and radius variations, suggesting that luminosity changes do not uniquely determine the underlying physical variations.
