SPIRITS 19q: Dust Production by a Subsolar-metallicity Carbon-rich Wolf-Rayet Star in NGC 2403
Sam Rose, Ryan M. Lau, Jacob E. Jencson +20
We present JWST/NIRSpec IFU observations of SPIRITS 19q, the highly dust-producing carbon-rich (WC) binary candidate located in a subsolar-metallicity region of the nearby spiral g…
High Spectral Resolution X-ray Observations of the Evolved Supermassive Stellar Binary System Carinae - Iron K Band Profile Revealed with XRISM
XRISM Collaboration, Marc Audard, Hisamitsu Awaki +138
The supermassive binary system, Carinae, is experiencing enormous wind-driven mass loss at a rate unparalleled in the rest of the Galaxy. Their wind-wind collision (WWC) contin…
Revealing the accelerating wind in the inner region of the colliding-wind binary WR 112
John D. Monnier, Yinuo Han, Michael F. Corcoran +17
Colliding winds in massive binaries generate X-ray-bright shocks, synchrotron radio emission, and sometimes even dusty "pinwheel" spirals. We report the first X-ray detections of t…
Carbon-rich dust injected into the interstellar medium by Galactic WC binaries survives for hundreds of years
Noel D. Richardson, Micaela Henson, Emma P. Lieb +23
Some carbon-rich Wolf-Rayet stars (WC stars) show an infrared excess from dust emission. Dust forms in the collision of the WC wind with a companion star's wind. As this dust is ca…
Dynamic Imprints of Colliding-wind Dust Formation from WR140
Emma P. Lieb, Ryan M. Lau, Jennifer L. Hoffman +24
Carbon-rich Wolf-Rayet binaries are a prominent source of carbonaceous dust that contribute to the dust budget of galaxies. The "textbook" example of an episodic dust producing WR…
Eta Carinae left a curious ladder to climb
Theodore R. Gull, Henrik Hartman, Michael F. Corcoran +5
Eta Carinae underwent the Great Eruption in the 1840s and a Lesser Eruption in the 1890s. Its apparent spectrum, modified by intervening ejecta, the Homunculus and Little Homunculu…
