We present and discuss new long-slit Echelle spectra of the LMC LBV candidate Sk-69 279 and put them in context with previous images and spectra. While at first glance a simple spherically expanding symmetric shell, we find a considerably more complex morphology and kinematics. The spectra indicate that morphologically identified deviations from sphericity are outflows of faster material out of the main body of Sk-69 279. The morphological as well as the kinematic similarity with other LBV nebulae makes it likely that Sk-69 279 is an LBV candidate, indeed, and poses the question in how far outflows out of expanding LBV nebulae are a general property of such nebulae--at least during some phases of their evolutions.

We present an analysis of the kinematic and morphological structure of the nebula around the LMC LBV candidate S 119. On HST images, we find a predominantly spherical nebula which, however, seems to be much better confined in its eastern hemisphere t
han in the western one. The filamentary western part of the nebula is indicative of matter flowing out of the nebulas main body. This outflow is even more evidenced by our long-slit echelle spectra. They show that, while most of the nebula has an expansion velocity of 25.5 km/s, the outflowing material reaches velocities of almost 140 km/s, relative to the systemic one. A ROSAT HRI image shows no trace of S 119 and thus no indications of hot or shocked material.
We present new observations of the nebula around the Magellanic candidate Luminous Blue Variable S61. These comprise high-resolution data acquired with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), the Atacama Large Millimetre/Submillimetre Array (AL
MA), and VISIR at the Very Large Telescope (VLT). The nebula was detected only in the radio, up to 17 GHz. The 17 GHz ATCA map, with 0.8 arcsec resolution, allowed a morphological comparison with the H$alpha$ Hubble Space Telescope image. The radio nebula resembles a spherical shell, as in the optical. The spectral index map indicates that the radio emission is due to free-free transitions in the ionised, optically thin gas, but there are hints of inhomogeneities. We present our new public code RHOCUBE to model 3D density distributions, and determine via Bayesian inference the nebulas geometric parameters. We applied the code to model the electron density distribution in the S61 nebula. We found that different distributions fit the data, but all of them converge to the same ionised mass, ~0.1 $rm Modot$, which is an order of magnitude smaller than previous estimates. We show how the nebula models can be used to derive the mass-loss history with high-temporal resolution. The nebula was probably formed through stellar winds, rather than eruptions. From the ALMA and VISIR non-detections, plus the derived extinction map, we deduce that the infrared emission observed by space telescopes must arise from extended, diffuse dust within the ionised region.
We present the light curve of Luminous Blue Variable candidate star GR290 (Romanos star) in M33. The photographic photometry was made in photographic plates taken in B band of the M33 galaxy and cover an eight year period, 1982 - 1990. Twenty five pl
ates, separated in seven groups, have been used. CCD B magnitude of the star is also presented. The analysis of our data together with the Romanos magnitudes (1978) shows normal eruptions with amplitude of more than 1 mag and timescale of about 20 years and smaller oscillations with amplitude 0.5 mag and a period of about 320 days. This is a typical photometrical behavior for LBVs.
The most massive evolved stars (above 50 M_sun) undergo a phase of extreme mass loss in which their evolution is reversed from a redward to a blueward motion in the HRD. In this phase the stars are known as Luminous Blue Variables (LBVs) and they are
located in the HRD close to the Humphreys-Davidson limit. It is far from understood what causes the strong mass loss or what triggers the so-called giant eruptions, active events in which in a short time a large amount of mass is ejected. Here I will present results from a larger project devoted to better understand LBVs through studying the LBV nebulae. These nebulae are formed as a consequence of the strong mass loss. The analysis concentrates on the morphology and kinematics of these nebulae. Of special concern was the frequently observed bipolar nature of the LBV nebulae. Bipolarity seems to be a general feature and strongly constrains models of the LBV phase and especially of the formation of the nebulae. In addition we found outflows from LBV nebulae, the first evidence for ongoing instabilities in the nebulae.
Luminous Blue Variable (LBV) stars are evolved massive objects, previous to core-collapse supernova. LBVs are characterized by photometric and spectroscopic variability, produced by strong and dense winds, mass-loss events and very intense UV radiati
on. LBVs strongly disturb their surroundings by heating and shocking, and produce important amounts of dust. The study of the circumstellar material is therefore crucial to understand how these massive stars evolve, and also to characterize their effects onto the interstellar medium. The versatility of NIKA2 is a key in providing simultaneous observations of both the stellar continuum and the extended, circumstellar contribution. The NIKA2 frequencies (150 and 260 GHz) are in the range where thermal dust and free-free emission compete, and hence NIKA2 has the capacity to provide key information about the spatial distribution of circumstellar ionized gas, warm dust and nearby dark clouds; non-thermal emission is also possible even at these high frequencies. We show the results of the first NIKA2 survey towards five LBVs. We detected emission from four stars, three of them immersed in tenuous circumstellar material. The spectral indices show a complex distribution and allowed us to separate and characterize different components. We also found nearby dark clouds, with spectral indices typical of thermal emission from dust. Spectral indices of the detected stars are negative and hard to be explained only by free-free processes. In one of the sources, G79.29+0.46, we also found a strong correlation of the 1mm and 2mm continuum emission with respect to nested molecular shells at 0.1 pc from the LBV. The spectral index in this region clearly separates four components: the LBV star, a bubble characterized by free-free emission, and a shell interacting with a nearby infrared dark cloud.
