Hydrodynamical simulations and similarity relations for eruptive mass-loss from massive stars

Motivated by the eruptive mass loss inferred from Luminous Blue Variable (LBV) stars, we present 1D hydrodynamical simulations of the response from sudden energy injection into the interior of a very massive ($100 \, M_\odot$) star. For a fiducial case with total energy addition set to a factor $f=0...
