A radial velocity survey of the Carina Nebula's O-type stars
Megan M. Kiminki, Nathan Smith
We have obtained multi-epoch observations of 31 O-type stars in the Carina Nebula using the CHIRON spectrograph on the CTIO/SMARTS 1.5-m telescope. We measure their radial velociti…
Proper motions of collimated jets from intermediate-mass protostars in the Carina Nebula
Megan Reiter, Megan M. Kiminki, Nathan Smith +1
We present proper motion measurements of 37 jets and HH objects in the Carina Nebula measured in two epochs of H images obtained yrs apart with HST/ACS. Transverse vel…
Proper motions of five OB stars with candidate dusty bow shocks in the Carina Nebula
Megan M. Kiminki, Nathan Smith, Megan Reiter +1
We constrain the proper motions of five OB stars associated with candidate stellar wind bow shocks in the Carina Nebula using HST ACS imaging over 9--10 year baselines. These prope…
The Dusty Silhouette Jet HH 1019 in the Carina Nebula
Megan Reiter, Megan M. Kiminki, Nathan Smith +1
We report the discovery in Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images of the new Herbig-Haro jet, HH 1019, located near the Tr 14 cluster in the Carina Nebula. Like other HH jets in the r…
Ancient eruptions of Eta Carinae: A tale written in proper motions
Megan M. Kiminki, Megan Reiter, Nathan Smith
We analyze eight epochs of Hubble Space Telescope H+[N II] imaging of Eta Carinae's outer ejecta. Proper motions of nearly 800 knots reveal that the detected ejecta are divided…
The O- and B-Type Stellar Population in W3: Beyond the High-Density Layer
Megan M. Kiminki, Jinyoung Serena Kim, Micaela B. Bagley +2
We present the first results from our survey of the star-forming complex W3, combining VRI photometry with multiobject spectroscopy to identify and characterize the high-mass stell…
HH 666: Different kinematics from Hα and [Fe II] emission provide a missing link between jets and outflows
Megan Reiter, Nathan Smith, Megan M. Kiminki +1
HH 666 is an externally irradiated protostellar outflow in the Carina Nebula for which we present new near-IR [Fe II] spectra obtained with the FIRE spectrograph at Magellan Observ…
Disentangling the outflow and protostars in HH 900 in the Carina Nebula
Megan Reiter, Nathan Smith, Megan M. Kiminki +2
HH 900 is a peculiar protostellar outflow emerging from a small, tadpole-shaped globule in the Carina nebula. Previous Hα imaging with HST/ACS showed an ionized outflow with a wide…
