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…
Eta Car and Its Surroundings: the X-ray Diagnosis
M. F. Corcoran, K. Hamaguchi
X-ray emission from the supermassive star Eta Carinae (\ec) originates from hot shocked gas produced by current stellar mass loss as well as ejecta from prior eruptive events. Abso…
Eta Car and other LBVs
M. F. Corcoran
Luminous Blue Variables (LBVs) are believed to be evolved, extremely massive stars close to the Eddington Limit and hence prone to bouts of large-scale, unstable mass loss. I discu…
First detection of phase-dependent colliding wind X-ray emission outside the Milky Way
Yael Naze, Michael F. Corcoran, Gloria Koenisgberger +1
After having reported the detection of X-rays emitted by the peculiar system HD5980, we assess here the origin of this high-energy emission from additional X-ray observations obtai…
