... Luminous blue variable (LBV) stars are the most massive stars with 40-120 solar masses, which are passing the short stage of evolution losing their hydrogen envelopes before exploding as Supernovae. These are extremely rare objects, only about a dozen of the most massive LBVs are known in the Galaxy. ... In the spectral observations of stars with infrared circular nebulae, found in the Spitzer survey (24 microns), a new LBV star in the Galaxy was discovered. It was named MN112. ...

... Based on the accurate radio position, GT 0236+610 was identified with LSI+61 303 (Gregory et al. , 1979[ 59 ]), a B0 star at a distance of 2 kpc (Frail and Hjellming, 1991[ 52 ]) with unusually broad, double-peaked, and variable and emission lines. ... The star wind velocity is estimated as  km s (Howarth, 1983[ 67 ]). ... The radio emission from LSI+61 303 exhibits non-thermal periodic outbursts of variable amplitude with a period of days (Taylor and Gregory, 1982, 1984[ 188 , 189 ]; Coe et al. ...
