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…

Magnetism in pre-MS intermediate-mass stars and the fossil field hypothesis
E. Alecian, G. A. Wade, C. Catala +11
Today, one of the greatest challenges concerning the Ap/Bp stars is to understand the origin of their slow rotation and their magnetic fields. The favoured hypothesis for the latte…

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…
