First HARPSpol discoveries of magnetic fields in massive stars
E. Alecian, O. Kochukhov, C. Neiner +14
In the framework of the Magnetism in Massive Stars (MiMeS) project, a HARPSpol Large Program at the 3.6m-ESO telescope has recently started to collect high-resolution spectropolari…
Characterizing the magnetic fields of the first tau Sco analogues
V. Petit, O. Kochukhov, D. L. Massa +3
The B0.2 V magnetic star tau Sco stands out from the larger population of massive OB stars due to its high X-ray activity, peculiar wind diagnostics and complex magnetic field. Rec…
Magnetism, rotation and large-scale wind variability of O-type stars
G. A. Wade
The common - arguably ubiquitous - large-scale variability of optical and UV lines profiles of hot, massive stars is widely interpreted as the direct consequence of structured, var…
High-resolution spectropolarimetric observations of hot subdwarfs
P. Petit, V. Van Grootel, S. Bagnulo +3
We report on high-resolution spectropolarimetric observations of the hot subdwarf stars HD 76431 and Feige 66, using the ESPaDOnS echelle spectropolarimeter at CFHT. We compute cro…
The spectral variability and magnetic field characteristics of the Of?p star HD 148937
G. A. Wade, J. Grunhut, G. Graefener +11
We report magnetic and spectroscopic observations and modeling of the Of?p star HD 148937 within the context of the MiMeS LP at the CFHT. Thirty-two high signal-to-noise ratio circ…
Revisiting the Rigidly Rotating Magnetosphere model for sigma Ori E. I. Observations and Data Analysis
M. E. Oksala, G. A. Wade, R. H. D. Townsend +6
We have obtained 18 new high-resolution spectropolarimetric observations of the B2Vp star sigma Ori E with both the Narval and ESPaDOnS spectropolarimeters. The aim of these observ…
