The large amplitude outburst of the young star HBC 722 in NGC 7000/IC 5070, a new FU Orionis candidate

E. Semkov, S. Peneva, U. Munari +2

We report the discovery of a large amplitude outburst from the young star HBC 722 (LkHA 188 G4) located in the region of NGC 7000/IC 5070. On the basis of photometric and spectrosc…

Exploring the magnetic topologies of cool stars

J. Morin, J. -F. Donati, P. Petit +19

Magnetic fields of cool stars can be directly investigated through the study of the Zeeman effect on photospheric spectral lines using several approaches. With spectroscopic measur…

Direct detection of a magnetic field in the photosphere of the single M giant EK Boo: How common is magnetic activity among M giants?

R. Konstantinova-Antova, M. Auriere, C. Charbonnel +6

We study the fast rotating M5 giant EK Boo by means of spectropolarimetry to obtain direct and simultaneous measurements of both the magnetic field and activity indicators, in orde…

No detection of large-scale magnetic fields at the surfaces of Am and HgMn stars

M. Auriere, G. A. Wade, F. Lignieres +7

We investigate the magnetic dichotomy between Ap/Bp and other A-type stars by carrying out a deep spectropolarimetric study of Am and HgMn stars. Using the NARVAL spectropolarimete…

Spectroscopic analysis of the B/Be visual binary HR 1847

J. Kubát, S. M. Saad, A. Kawka +9

We studied both components of a slightly overlooked visual binary HR 1847 spectroscopically to determine its basic physical and orbital parameters. Basic stellar parameters were de…

The magnetic field of Betelgeuse: a local dynamo from giant convection cells?

M. Auriere, J. -F. Donati, R. Konstantinova-Antova +3

Betelgeuse is an M supergiant with a complex and extended atmosphere, which also harbors spots and giant granules at its surface. A possible magnetic field could contribute to the…

A long-term photometric study of the FU Orionis star V 733 Cep

S. P. Peneva, E. H. Semkov, U. Munari +1

The FU Orionis candidate V733 Cep was discovered by Roger Persson in 2004. The star is located in the dark cloud L1216 close to the Cepheus OB3 association. Because only a small nu…
