Pulsating star

A stylized spherical pulsating star shown as a round glowing disk or sphere with a bright white-yellow to yellow-orange center and a soft halo fading outward. The outer boundary is slightly wavy, scalloped, or subtly expanded rather than perfectly smooth, and faint concentric ripple lines or alternating larger and smaller glow rings surround the star to suggest periodic expansion and contraction or radial oscillation. The star remains clearly spherical, with a smooth luminous surface and no visible sunspots, rendered in a clean schematic or simple clipart style distinct from a stable star.
