Abstract

The probability of detecting a 1.35 cm H2O vapor line from single M Mira variables has been found to depend on the actual shape of the visual light curve. Following the classification scheme of Ludendorff (1928), the probability of detection of H2O is highest for α-class light curves, reduces drastically for β-class, and is almost nil for γ-class. Similar tendency is exhibited by the mean luminosity of H2O in the three classes as well.
