The Colliding Winds of WR146: Seeing the Works

E. P. O'Connor, S. M. Dougherty, J. M. Pittard +1

WR146 is a WC6+O8 colliding-wind binary (CWB) system with thermal emission from the stellar winds of the two stars, and bright non-thermal emission from the wind-collision region (…

X-ray and radio emission from colliding stellar winds

J. M. Pittard, S. M. Dougherty, R. F. Coker +1

The collision of the hypersonic winds in early-type binaries produces shock heated gas, which radiates thermal X-ray emission, and relativistic electrons, which emit nonthermal rad…

Probing Colliding Wind Binaries with High-Resolution X-ray Spectra

D. B. Henley, I. R. Stevens, J. M. Pittard +2

X-ray line profiles represent a new way of studying the winds of massive stars. In particular, they enable us to probe in detail the wind-wind collision in colliding wind binaries,…

Multi-Wavelength Observations of Colliding Stellar Winds

M. F. Corcoran, J. M. Pittard, I. R. Stevens +2

Massive colliding wind binary stars serve as laboratories for the study of strong-shock physics. In these systems fundamental flow parameters (velocities, densities, directions) ar…

An X-ray Binary Model for the Galactic Center Source IRS 13E

R. F. Coker, J. M. Pittard

We present several models for IRS 13E, an infrared, mm and X-ray source in the Galactic Center. Our favored interpretation is that of an early-type binary with strong colliding win…
