The X-ray emission from the supermassive star η Car is simulated using a 3D model of the
wind–wind collision. In the model the intrinsic X-ray emission is spatially extended and …

Three-dimensional adaptive mesh refinement hydrodynamical simulations of the wind–wind
collision between the enigmatic supermassive star η Car and its mysterious companion star …

Recent work suggests that the mass-loss rate of the primary star ηA in the massive colliding
wind binary η Carinae dropped by a factor of 2–3 between 1999 and 2010. We present …

The highly eccentric binary system, η Car, provides clues to the transition of massive stars
from hydrogen–burning via the CNO cycle to a helium–burning evolutionary state. The fast …

The highly eccentric binary system Eta Carinae (η Car) shows numerous time-variable
emission and absorption features. These observational signatures are the result of …

The very massive star system η Carinae exhibits regular 5.54 yr (2024 d) period disruptive
events in wavebands ranging from the radio to X-ray. There is a growing consensus that …

The exact nature of η Carinae is still an open issue. Strict periodicity in the light curves at
several wavelengths seem to point to a binary system, but the observed radial velocities …

We present two-dimensional (2D) radiative transfer modelling of the Eta Carinae binary
system accounting for the presence of a wind–wind collision (WWC) cavity carved in the …

We analyze interferometric measurements of the luminous blue variable Eta Carinae with
the goal of constraining the rotational velocity of the primary star and probing the influence of …

We analyze spatially resolved spectroscopic observations of the Eta Carinae binary system
obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope/STIS. Eta Car is enshrouded by the dusty …
