Puzzling X-rays from the new colliding wind binary WR65
L. M. Oskinova, W. -R. Hamann
We report the discovery of variability in the X-ray emission from the Wolf-Rayet type star WR 65. Using archival Chandra data spanning over 5 yr we detect changes of the X-ray flux…
Two extremely luminous WN stars in the Galactic center with circumstellar emission from dust and gas
A. Barniske, L. M. Oskinova, W. -R. Hamann
We study relatively isolated massive WN-type stars in the Galactic center. The K-band spectra of WR102ka and WR102c are exploited to infer the stellar parameters and to compute syn…
A new outburst in LMC-N66
Miriam Pena, M. Teresa Ruiz, Patricio Rojo +2
This is the first report on the new outburst presented by the central star of the LMC-N66 nebula. This object was classified as a planetary nebula, however, its true nature is unde…
Mass loss from late-type WN stars and its Z-dependence: very massive stars approaching the Eddington limit
G. Graefener, W. -R. Hamann
The mass loss from Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars is of fundamental importance for the final fate of massive stars and their chemical yields. Its Z-dependence is discussed in relation to th…
