UVBRI imaging photometry of Eta Carinae region
CCD Images of a large area of the Eta Car Nebula are presented. The area covers some 60 by 30 arcmin. The images presented here were taken with a Tektronix 1024 x 1024, blue sensitive CCD on the 1m Swope Telescope of the Las Campanas Observatory. The images are sampled to .67 arcsec per pixel. The a...
