The MiMeS Project: Magnetism in Massive Stars
G. A. Wade, E. Alecian, D. A. Bohlender +11
The Magnetism in Massive Stars (MiMeS) Project is a consensus collaboration among the foremost international researchers of the physics of hot, massive stars, with the basic aim of…
The MiMeS Project: First Results
J. H. Grunhut, E. Alecian, D. A. Bohlender +11
Massive stars are those stars with initial masses above about 8 times that of the sun, eventually leading to catastrophic explosions in the form of supernovae. These represent the…
Magnetic topologies of the Herbig Ae/Be stars
E. Alecian, G. A. Wade, C. Catala +9
Our recent discoveries of magnetic fields in a small number of Herbig Ae/Be (HAeBe) stars, the evolutionary progenitors of main sequence A/B stars, raise new questions about the or…
Magnetic fields and chemical peculiarities of the very young intermediate-mass binary system HD 72106
C. P. Folsom, G. A. Wade, O. Kochukhov +9
The recently discovered magnetic Herbig Ae and Be stars may provide qualitatively new information about the formation and evolution of magnetic Ap and Bp stars. We have performed a…
Magnetism in Herbig Ae/Be stars and the link to the Ap/Bp stars
E. Alecian, C. Catala, G. A. Wade +11
Among the A/B stars, about 5% host large-scale organised magnetic fields. These magnetic stars show also abundance anomalies in their spectra, and are therefore called the magnetic…
Discovery of magnetic fields in the very young, massive stars W601 (NGC 6611) and OI 201 (NGC 2244)
E. Alecian, G. A. Wade, C. Catala +8
Context: Recent spectropolarimetric observations of Herbig Ae/Be stars have yielded new arguments in favour of a fossil origin for the magnetic fields of intermediate mass stars. A…
