New Insights from Revisiting the Rotation Period of the Strongly Magnetic O Star, NGC 1624-2
S. Seadrow, V. Petit, G. A. Wade +5
NGC 1624-2 hosts the strongest surface magnetic field found on an O star thus far. When applied across several epochs of observations, the star's currently accepted rotation period…
Magnetic field monitoring of four massive A-F supergiants
Gregg Wade, Mary Oksala, Coralie Neiner +2
We report magnetic field measurements spanning about 15 years of four massive () supergiant stars: Per (HD\,20902, F5Iab), Lep (HD\,36673A, F0Ib), Le…
SpecpolFlow: a new software package for spectropolarimetry using Python
Colin P. Folsom, Christiana Erba, Veronique Petit +8
Spectropolarimetry, the observation of polarization and intensity as a function of wavelength, is a powerful tool in stellar astrophysics. It is particularly useful for characteriz…
Stellar Magnetism
Veronique Petit, Mary E. Oksala
Stellar Magnetism affects all spectral types and exists and varies throughout the evolution of stars. Magnetic fields can affect not only the interior of stars, but also their circ…
