3D radiative transfer simulations of Eta Carinae's inner colliding winds - I. Ionization structure of helium at apastron
Nicola Clementel, Thomas I. Madura, Chael Kruip +2
The highly eccentric binary system Eta Carinae shows numerous time-variable emission and absorption features. These observational signatures are the result of interactions between…
On the Nature of Type Ia-CSM Supernovae: Optical and Near-Infrared Spectra of SN 2012ca and SN 2013dn
Ori D. Fox, Jeffrey M. Silverman, Alexei V. Filippenko +17
A growing subset of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) show evidence for unexpected interaction with a dense circumstellar medium (SNe Ia-CSM). The precise nature of the progenitor, howev…
The three-dimensional structure of the Eta Carinae Homunculus
W. Steffen, M. Teodoro, T. I. Madura +6
We investigate, using the modeling code SHAPE, the three-dimensional structure of the bipolar Homunculus nebula surrounding Eta Carinae, as mapped by new ESO VLT/X-Shooter observat…
3D Radiative Transfer in Carinae: Application of the SimpleX Algorithm to 3D SPH Simulations of Binary Colliding Winds
N. Clementel, T. I. Madura, C. J. H. Kruip +2
Eta Carinae is an ideal astrophysical laboratory for studying massive binary interactions and evolution, and stellar wind-wind collisions. Recent three-dimensional (3D) simulations…
Constraints on the space density of intermediate polars from the Swift-BAT survey
Magaretha L. Pretorius, Koji Mukai
We construct a complete, hard X-ray flux-limited sample of intermediate polars (IPs) from the Swift-BAT 70-month survey, by imposing selection cuts in flux and Galactic latitude ($…
