Why are some A stars magnetic, while most are not?

G. A. Wade, J. Silvester, K. Bale +21

A small fraction of intermediate-mass main sequence (A and B type) stars have strong, organised magnetic fields. The large majority of such stars, however, show no evidence for mag…

Characterisation of the magnetic field of the Herbig Be star HD 200775

E. Alecian, C. Catala, G. A. Wade +9

After our recent discovery of four magnetic Herbig stars, we have decided to study in detail one of them, HD 200775, to determine if its magnetic topology is similar to that of the…

Magnetic Doppler Imaging of Ap stars

J. Silvester, G. A. Wade, O. Kochukhov +2

Historically, the magnetic field geometries of the chemically peculiar Ap stars were modelled in the context of a simple dipole field. However, with the acquisition of increasingly…

Magnetism and rotation in Herbig Ae/Be stars

E. Alecian, G. A. Wade, C. Catala +8

Among the main sequence intermediate mass A and B stars, around 5% host large-scale organized magnetic fields. Most of these stars are very slow rotators compared to their non-magn…

Magnetism, rotation and accretion in Herbig Ae-Be stars

E. Alecian, G. A. Wade, C. Catala +7

Studies of stellar magnetism at the pre-main sequence phase can provide important new insights into the detailed physics of the late stages of star formation, and into the observed…

Weak magnetic fields in Ap/Bp stars: Evidence for a dipole field lower limit and a tentative interpretation of the magnetic dichotomy

M. Auriere, G. A. Wade, J. Silvester +22

We have investigated a sample of 28 well-known spectroscopically-identified magnetic Ap/Bp stars, with weak, poorly-determined or previously undetected magnetic fields, with the ai…
