A dusty revolution

Sarah Tomlin

Nature, 1999, vol. 398, issue 6727, 463-463

Abstract: powerful new technique, called aperture masking, has been used at the Keck telescope in Hawaii to produce unprecedented images of a spiral structure in the hot dust around a Wolf-Rayet star. The images show that the dust is rotating — seemingly as a consequence of the interacting stellar winds caused by a companion star.
