The Orbital Period of the Long-period and Colliding-wind Binary WR 146 from Radio Interferometry of the Shock Cone

The Orbital Period of the Long-period and Colliding-wind Binary WR 146 from Radio Interferometry of the Shock Cone

We report the first measurement of the orbital period of a long-period colliding-wind-binary system Wolf–Rayet (WR) 146, derived by tracing the rotational morphology of its wind-colliding region (WCR) and the relative orientation of the two binary components. This result is based on our imaging obse...
