A study of the magnetic helium variable emission-line star HD 125823

Astrophysics 2009-11-13 v1

Abstract

The 5.9 M_sun star HD 125823 is a striking helium variable with a period of 8.82 d, ranging in helium spectral type from He-strong B2 to He-weak B8. For the first time we present here observational evidence for the appearance of emission lines of Mn and Fe in a variable magnetic star.
