Scientific paper

The effect of height-dependent opacity on the radiative damping of acoustic waves in the atmospheres of late-type stars is investigated theoretically, using an optically thin approximation of isothermal equilibrium atmospheres and assuming a general power law formula for the opacity. Easily computed expressions, formulas, and functions are presented which apply to late-type stars of the luminosity classes III and V. Results are presented of comparisons carried out for waves with spatial damping and waves with time damping in isothermal homogeneous gases.
