Catalogue of BRITE-Constellation targets I. Fields 1 to 14 (November 2013 - April 2016)
K. Zwintz, A. Pigulski, R. Kuschnig +25
The BRIght Target Explorer (BRITE) mission collects photometric time series in two passbands aiming to investigate stellar structure and evolution. Since their launches in the year…
FORCASTing the spectroscopic dust properties of the WC+O binary WR137 with SOFIA
Megan J. Peatt, Noel D. Richardson, Peredur M. Williams +5
WR 137 (HD 192641) is a binary system consisting of a carbon-rich Wolf-Rayet star and an Oe companion star in a 13-year orbit. Near periastron, the winds of the two stars collide a…
Speckle Imaging of Gamma2 Velorum: The Inner Wind Possibly Resolved
Michael M. Shara, Steve B. Howell, Elise Furlan +3
Accurately quantifying the rates dM/dt at which massive stars lose mass is essential to any understanding of their evolution. All dM/dt estimates to date assume wind clumping facto…
From Dust to Nanodust: Resolving Circumstellar Dust from the Colliding-Wind Binary Wolf-Rayet (WR) 140
Ryan M. Lau, Jason Wang, Matthew J. Hankins +17
Wolf-Rayet (WR) 140 is the archetypal periodic dust-forming colliding-wind binary that hosts a carbon-rich WR (WC) star and an O-star companion with an orbital period of 7.93 years…
Eta Carinae: the dissipating occulter is an extended structure
Theodore R. Gull, Henrik Hartman, Mairan Teodoro +10
Previous STIS long-slit observations of Eta Carinae identified numerous absorption features in both the stellar spectrum, and in the adjacent nebular spectra, along our line-of-sig…
The orbital kinematics of eta Carinae over three periastra with a possible detection of the elusive secondary's motion
Emily Strawn, Noel D. Richardson, Anthony F. J. Moffat +14
The binary eta Carinae is the closest example of a very massive star, which may have formed through a merger during its Great Eruption in the mid-nineteenth century. We aimed to co…
