The periodicity of the η Carinae events
- A. Damineli, M. Corcoran, +33 authors Usa In memoriam
- Physics
- 27 November 2007
Extensive spectral observations of η Carinae over the last cycle, and particularly around the 2003.5 low-excitation event, have been obtained. The variability of both narrow and broad lines, when… Expand
ON THE NATURE OF THE PROTOTYPE LUMINOUS BLUE VARIABLE AG CARINAE. I. FUNDAMENTAL PARAMETERS DURING VISUAL MINIMUM PHASES AND CHANGES IN THE BOLOMETRIC LUMINOSITY DURING THE S-Dor CYCLE*
- J. Groh, D. J. Hillier, +10 authors Italy.
- Physics
- 15 April 2009
We present a detailed spectroscopic analysis of the luminous blue variable AG Carinae during the last two visual minimum phases of its S-Dor cycle (1985-1990 and 2000-2003). The analysis reveals an… Expand
Fundamental properties of core-collapse Supernova and GRB progenitors: predicting the look of massive stars before death
- J. Groh, G. Meynet, C. Georgy, S. Ekstrom
- Physics
- 21 August 2013
We investigate the fundamental properties of core-collapse Supernova (SN) progenitors from single stars at solar meta llicity. For this purpose, we combine Geneva stellar evolutionary models with… Expand
BONA FIDE, STRONG-VARIABLE GALACTIC LUMINOUS BLUE VARIABLE STARS ARE FAST ROTATORS: DETECTION OF A HIGH ROTATIONAL VELOCITY IN HR CARINAE*
- J. Groh, A. Damineli, +12 authors Inst. de Astrof. de La PlataArgentina
- Physics
- 24 September 2009
We report optical observations of the luminous blue variable (LBV) HR Carinae which show that the star has reached a visual minimum phase in 2009. More importantly, we detected absorptions due to Si… Expand
Confined dense circumstellar material surrounding a regular type II supernova
- O. Yaron, D. Perley, +30 authors M. Soumagnac
- Physics
- 10 January 2017
With the advent of new wide-field, high-cadence optical transient surveys, our understanding of the diversity of core-collapse supernovae has grown tremendously in the last decade. However, the… Expand
The evolution of massive stars and their spectra - I. A non-rotating 60 M⊙ star from the zero-age main sequence to the pre-supernova stage
- J. Groh, G. Meynet, S. Ekstrom, C. Georgy
- Physics
- 28 January 2014
For the first time, the interior and spectroscopic evolution of a massive star is analyzed from the zero-age main sequence (ZAMS) to the pre-supernova (SN) stage. For this purpose, we combined… Expand
On the influence of the companion star in Eta Carinae: 2D radiative transfer modeling of the ultraviolet and optical spectra
- J. Groh, D. J. Hillier, +4 authors Usa
- Physics
- 9 April 2012
We present 2D radiative transfer modeling of the Eta Carinae binary system accounting for the presence of a wind-wind collision (WWC) cavity carved in the optically-thick wind of the primary star. By… Expand
Progenitors of supernova Ibc: a single Wolf-Rayet star as the possible progenitor of the SN Ib iPTF13bvn
- J. Groh, C. Georgy, S. Ekstrom
- Physics
- 31 July 2013
Core-collapse supernova (SN) explosions mark the end of the tumultuous life of massive stars. Determining the nature of their progenitors is a crucial step towards understanding the properties of… Expand
Constraining the absolute orientation of η Carinae’s binary orbit: a 3D dynamical model for the broad [Fe iii] emission
- T. Madura, T. Gull, S. Owocki, J. Groh, A. Okazaki, C. Russell
- Physics
- 9 November 2011
We present a three-dimensional (3-D) dynamical model for the broad [Fe III] emission observed in Eta Carinae using the Hubble Space Telescope/Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (HST/STIS). This… Expand
Massive star evolution: luminous blue variables as unexpected supernova progenitors
- J. Groh, G. Meynet, S. Ekstrom
- Physics
- 8 January 2013
Stars more massive than about 8 Mend their lives as a supernova (SN), an event of fundamental importance Universe-wide. Theoretically, these stars have been expected to be either at the red… Expand
