Abstract

Five nights photoelectric photometric observations through v and y bands confirm the pulsation of classical Am Scuti variable 60 Tau. Power spectrum of light curves shows multi-period pulsation behavior of 60 Tau and two pulsation modes =13.0364 and =11.8521 cycles per day are definitely identified. Classical Am star 60 Tau is a complicated pulsation Scuti variable. Considering the pulsation constant Q, 60 Tau is identified to be low overtone f or modes tendentiously.

Key words: stars: variables: ffi Sct stars: oscillations stars: individual: 60 Tau
