Numerical simulations of the great eruption of η Carinae from the 1840s-I. Revisiting the explosion scenario

RF González, LA Zapata, AC Raga, J Cantó… - Astronomy & …, 2022 - aanda.org
In this work, we present new 2D hydrodynamical simulations of the major eruption of η Car
in the 1840s, which resulted in the formation of a bipolar nebula that is commonly known as …

Numerical modeling of the 1840s major eruption of η Carinae as an explosion

RF González - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2018 - aanda.org
In this paper, new two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of η Car's nebulae are
performed. In the 1840s, the massive star η Car suffered a major eruption that resulted in the …

Revisiting 2D numerical models for the 19th century outbursts of η Carinae

RF González, AM Villa, GC Gómez… - Monthly Notices of …, 2010 - academic.oup.com
We present here new results of two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of the eruptive
events of the 1840s (the great) and the 1890s (the minor) eruptions suffered by the massive …

Fast ejecta resulted from jet–wind interaction in the Great Eruption of Eta Carinae

M Akashi, A Kashi - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
The accretion model for the 19th century Great Eruption (GE) of η Carinae suggests that
mass outflowing from the primary was accreted on to the secondary, and the gravitational …

Blitz model for the eruptions of eta carinae

N Smith, JA Guzik, HJ Lamers, JP Cassinelli… - International …, 1999 - cambridge.org
Following the “Great Eruption” of 1843, η Carinae underwent a second major eruption
around 1890. We suggest a preliminary working model developed during this meeting (in …

Numerical modeling of η Carinae bipolar outflows

RF González, EMG Dal Pino, AC Raga… - The Astrophysical …, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
In this paper, we present two-dimensional gasdynamic simulations of the formation and
evolution of the η Car bipolar outflows. Adopting the interacting nonspherical winds model …

Simulating the formation of η Carinae's surrounding nebula through unstable triple evolution and stellar merger-induced eruption

R Hirai, P Podsiadlowski, SP Owocki… - Monthly Notices of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com
ABSTRACT η Carinae is an extraordinary massive star famous for its 19th century Great
Eruption and the surrounding Homunculus nebula ejected in that event. The cause of this …

A model for the 19th century eruption of Eta Carinae: CSM interaction like a scaled-down Type IIn Supernova

N Smith - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2013 - academic.oup.com
This paper proposes a simple model for the 19th century eruption of Eta Carinae that
consists of two components:(1) a strong wind (yr− 1; v∞= 200 km s− 1), blowing for 30 yr …

Ancient eruptions of η Carinae: a tale written in proper motions

MM Kiminki, M Reiter, N Smith - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2016 - academic.oup.com
We analyse eight epochs of Hubble Space Telescope Hα+[N ii] imaging of η Carinae's outer
ejecta. Proper motions of nearly 800 knots reveal that the detected ejecta are divided into …

Exceptionally fast ejecta seen in light echoes of Eta Carinae's Great Eruption

N Smith, A Rest, JE Andrews… - Monthly Notices of …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
In our ongoing study of η Carinae's light echoes, there is a relatively bright echo that has
been fading slowly, reflecting the 1845–1858 plateau phase of the eruption. A separate …
