A scaling relationship for non-thermal radio emission from ordered magnetospheres - II. Investigating the efficiency of relativistic electron production in magnetospheres of BA-type stars
P. Leto, S. Owocki, C. Trigilio +19
Magnetic BA stars host dipole-like magnetospheres. When detected as radio sources, their luminosities correlate with the magnetic field and rotation. Rotation is crucial because th…
The effect of collisional cooling of energetic electrons on radio emission from the centrifugal magnetospheres of magnetic hot stars
B. Das, S. P. Owocki
This paper extends our previous study of gyro-emission by energetic electrons in the magnetospheres of rapidly rotating, magnetic massive stars, through a quantitative analysis of…
Discovery of the binary nature of the magnetospheric B-type star Oph A
M. E. Shultz, I. Berry, D. Bohlender +11
The nearby B-type star Oph A was recently identified as a rapidly rotating magnetic B-type star with variable radio and X-ray emission consistent with a magnetospheric origin.…
X-ray and radio data obtained by XMM-Newton and VLA constrain the stellar wind of the magnetic quasi-Wolf-Rayet star in HD45166
P. Leto, L. M. Oskinova, T. Shenar +9
Recently, a powerful magnetic field was discovered in the hot helium star classified as a quasi-Wolf-Rayet star of ~2Msun, member of the HD45166 system. Upon its explosion as a cor…
MOBSTER -- VII. Using light curves to infer magnetic and rotational properties of stars with centrifugal magnetospheres
I. D. Berry, M. E. Shultz, S. P. Owocki +1
Early-type B stars with strong magnetic fields and rapid rotation form centrifugal magnetospheres (CMs), as the relatively weak stellar wind becomes magnetically confined and centr…
Discovery and origin of the radio emission from the multiple stellar system KQVel
P. Leto, L. M. Oskinova, C. S. Buemi +20
KQVel is a binary system composed of a slowly rotating magnetic Ap star with a companion of unknown nature. In this paper, we report the detection of its radio emission. We conduct…
Investigating the origin of cyclical wind variability in hot, massive stars - II. Hydrodynamical simulations of co-rotating interaction regions using realistic spot parameters for the O giant Persei
A. David-Uraz, S. P. Owocki, G. A. Wade +2
OB stars exhibit various types of spectral variability historically associated with wind structures, including the apparently ubiquitous discrete absorption components (DACs). Thes…
Magnetic massive stars as progenitors of "heavy" stellar-mass black holes
V. Petit, Z. Keszthelyi, R. MacInnis +7
The groundbreaking detection of gravitational waves produced by the inspiralling and coalescence of the black hole (BH) binary GW150914 confirms the existence of "heavy" stellar-ma…
The MiMeS Survey of Magnetism in Massive Stars: Introduction and overview
G. A. Wade, C. Neiner, E. Alecian +47
The MiMeS project is a large-scale, high resolution, sensitive spectropolarimetric investigation of the magnetic properties of O and early B type stars. Initiated in 2008 and compl…
A Magnetic Confinement vs. Rotation Classification of Massive-Star Magnetospheres
V. Petit, S. P. Owocki, G. A. Wade +12
Building on results from the Magnetism in Massive Stars (MiMeS) project, this paper shows how a two-parameter classification of massive-star magnetospheres in terms of the magnetic…
