AGB variable stars are at the transient phase between low and high mass-loss rates; estimating the masses of these stars is necessary to study the evolutionary processes and mass-loss processes during the AGB stage. We applied the pulsation constant theoretically derived by Xiong and Deng (2007 MNRAS, 378, 1270) to 15 galactic AGB stars in order to estimate their masses. We found that using the pu...
