Abstract

For the classical Cepheid V1033 Cyg we have constructed an O—C diagram spanning a time interval of 117 years. The O—C diagram has the shape of a parabola, which has made it possible to determine for the first time the quadratic light elements and to calculate the rate of evolutionary increase in the period dP/dt = 18.19 (±0.08) syr −1 , in agreement with the results of theoretical calculations for the first crossing of the instability strip. Thus, V1033 Cyg is the second actually observed Cepheid (after α UMi) that crosses the instability strip for the first time.
