The periodicity of the eta Carinae events
A. Damineli, M. F. Corcoran, D. J. Hillier +14
Extensive spectral observations of eta Carinae over the last cycle, and particularly around the 2003.5 low excitation event, have been obtained. The variability of both narrow and…
A multispectral view of the periodic events in eta Carinae
A. Damineli, D. J. Hillier, M. F. Corcoran +13
A full description of the 5.5-yr low excitation events in Eta Carinae is presented. We show that they are not as simple and brief as previously thought, but a combination of two co…
Achernar: Rapid Polarization Variability as Evidence of Photospheric and Circumstellar Activity
A. C. Carciofi, A. M. Magalhães, N. V. Leister +2
We present the results of a high accuracy () polarization monitoring of the Be Star Achernar that was carried out between July 7th and November 5th, 2006. Our resu…
The dependence of the viscosity-parameter on the disk scale height profile
Cesar Meirelles Filho, Nelson Leister
It is shown that the height scale for accretion disks is a constant whenever hydrostatic equilibrium and sub-sonic turbulence regime hold in the disk. In order to have a variable h…
