Table 1. Observation Parameters Searching for Radial Velocity Variations in  Carinae Rosina C. Iping (CUA/NASA/GSFC), George Sonneborn, Ted R. Gull (NASA/GSFC), Stefan Ivarsson, Krister Nielsen (CUA/NASA/GSFC) ABSTRACT A hot companion of  Carinae has been detected using high resolution spectra ( Å) obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) satellite (see poster by Sonneborn et al.). Analysis of the far-UV spectrum shows that  Car B is a luminous hot star. The N II Å emission feature indicates that the star might be nitrogen rich. The FUV continuum and the S IV 1073 Å P-Cygni wind line suggest that the effective temperature of  Car B is at least 25,000 K. FUV spectra of  Carinae were obtained with the FUSE satellite at 9 epochs between 2000 February and 2005 July. The data consists of 12 observations taken with the LWRS aperture (30 X 30 arcsec), three with the HIRS aperture (1.25 x 20 arcsec), and one MRDS aperture (4 x 20 arcsec) see table1. In this paper we discuss the analysis of these spectra to search for radial velocity variations associated with the 5.54-year binary orbit of  Car AB. FUSE OBS ID Start Time (U.T.) No. Exposures texpo (s) Aper p.a. The Luminous Blue Variable  Carinae has long been suspected to be a massive binary system. Our FUSE Cycle 4 observations have detected a hot companion of  Carinae for the first time (Iping et al 2005, ApJL 633, L37). FUSE observations of  Carinae now span over complete binary period (5.54 years) - see Table 1. All LWRS observations however, are contaminated by two nearby B stars (see top left of picture). Several exposures taken with the HIRS aperture recorded the B star spectra in the SIC1A channel and this enabled us to correct the LWRS spectra for the B star contamination. We have analyzed some wind features to search for radial velocity changes associated with the binary orbital motion.

N II, probably originating from a region between  Car A and  Car B, shows small changes in velocity. The radial velocity curve for the N II emission feature is below. No apparent velocity shifts are measured in the S IV 1073 line. The FUSE spectrum of eta Carinae from 930 A to 1187 A. The data are from the July 2001 LWRS aperture spectrum (thin line) and the April 2004 HIRS spectrum (thick line). The H 2 Lyman and Werner ground state transitions are shown, respectively, by short- and long-dashed lines. The H 2 transitions are identified by the rotational branch and quantum number (e.g. R3) above each line and by the vibrational quantum numbers (e.g. 11-0) on the left-hand side of each panel. The principal atomic transitions and the R0 lines of HD and CO are marked by short solid vertical lines. Several atomic transitions are also shown. All transitions are marked at their laboratory wavelengths. We searched for radial variations in the FUV spectrum of  Car by analyzing the N II feature and the S IV 1073 line. The spectra were first aligned to the interstellar H 2 lines. The fluxes were normalized at 1089A (SiC1a channel for N II) and 1059A (LiF1a channel for S IV). The X024 data and B are calibrated with CalFUSE v 3.0. The rest of the data have been calibrated with CalFUSE v. 3.1.
