First results from the LIFE project: discovery of two magnetic hot evolved stars
A. J. Martin, C. Neiner, M. E. Oksala +6
We present the initial results of the Large Impact of magnetic Fields on the Evolution of hot stars (LIFE) project. The focus of this project is the search for magnetic fields in e…
Mixed poloidal-toroidal magnetic configuration and surface abundance distributions of the Bp star 36 Lyn
M. E. Oksala, J. Silvester, O. Kochukhov +3
Previous studies of the chemically peculiar Bp star 36 Lyn revealed a moderately strong magnetic field, circumstellar material, and inhomogeneous surface abundance distributions of…
Resolving the circumstellar environment of the Galactic B[e] supergiant star MWC 137 from large to small scales
Michaela Kraus, Tiina Liimets, Cristina E. Cappa +10
The Galactic object MWC 137 was suggested to belong to the group of B[e] supergiants. However, with its large-scale optical bipolar ring nebula and the high velocity jet and knots,…
Discovery of magnetic A supergiants: the descendants of magnetic main sequence B stars
Coralie Neiner, Mary E. Oksala, Cyril Georgy +8
In the context of the high resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio, high sensitivity, spectropolarimetric survey BritePol, which complements observations by the BRITE constellation…
Studying the photometric and spectroscopic variability of the magnetic hot supergiant Orionis Aa
B. Buysschaert, C. Neiner, N. D. Richardson +14
Massive stars play a significant role in the chemical and dynamical evolution of galaxies. However, much of their variability, particularly during their evolved supergiant stage, i…
The evolution of magnetic fields in hot stars
Mary E. Oksala, Coralie Neiner, Cyril Georgy +6
Over the last decade, tremendous strides have been achieved in our understanding of magnetism in main sequence hot stars. In particular, the statistical occurrence of their surface…
