Uncovering the orbital dynamics of stars hidden inside their powerful winds: application to $η$ Carinae and RMC 140
Determining accurate orbits of binary stars with powerful winds is challenging. The dense outflows increase the effective photospheric radius, precluding direct observation of the Keplerian motion; instead the observables are broad lines emitted over large radii in the stellar wind. Our analysis rev...
