Modeling of spectral variability of Romano's star

We present results of investigation of spectral variability of one of the most interesting massive stars, Romano's star (M33/V532 or GR290), located in the M33 galaxy. Brightness of the star changes together with its spectral class, which varies from WN11 to WN8. Using CMFGEN code we estimated parameters of stellar atmosphere and found that during last ten years bolometric luminosity of the star changed synchronously with stellar magnitude. Our calculations argue in favor of the hypothesis of a post-LBV status of GR290.
