ADC_Keywords: Stars, variable
Keywords: stars: variables: Cepheids - stars: oscillations

Description:
    The light curves of 124 classical Cepheids with period longer than
    8 days were Fourier decomposed with the aim of detecting
    resonance effects between pulsation modes in the Fourier parameters.
