Scientific paper

Observations with high spectral resolution of the Hα line profile from the core of η Carinae show variations of the shape of the profile in time scales less than a year. A Gaussian analysis of the observed line profiles suggests the presence of several knots of material with high velocities with respect to a central object. The time variation of the profile can be interpreted as due to physical changes in the central object of η Carinae.
