Magnetic early B-type stars are rare. To identify them, we use the strongest indirect indicator of a magnetic field in B stars, which is periodic variability of UV stellar wind lines occurring symmetric about the approximate rest…
We report the results of a synoptic study of the photometric and spectroscopic variability of the classical T Tauri star AA Tau on timescales ranging from a few hours to several weeks. Emission lines show both infall and outflow signatures…
We present new brightness and magnetic images of the weak-line T Tauri star V410 Tau, made using data from the NARVAL spectropolarimeter at Telescope Bernard Lyot (TBL). The brightness image shows a large polar spot and significant spot…
We present new results on the classical T Tauri star RU Lupi based on three observing runs collecting high-resolution spectra, complementary NIR spectra, multicolour photometric data, and X-ray observations. The photospheric absorption…
We present polarimetric observations of 14 pre-main-sequence (PMS) binaries located in the Taurus, Auriga, and Orion star forming regions. The majority of the average observed polarizations are below 0.5%, and none are above 0.9%. After…
We present Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer observations of the magnetic cataclysmic variable V405 Aurigae. Together with four other DQ Her type binaries, V405 Aur forms a small subclass of intermediate polars which are likely to…
We present Doppler imaging and Balmer line analysis of the weak-line T Tauri star TWA 6. Using this data we have made one of the first attempts to measure differential rotation in a T Tauri star, and the first detection of a slingshot…
We monitored the light variations of 22 weak-line T Tauri stars (WTTS) discovered among the X-ray sources in the field of the Taurus-Auriga cloud. The photometric variability of 12 out of these WTTS samples is confirmed. They are all proved…
In this paper we report the results of high-resolution circular spectropolarimetric monitoring of the Herbig Ae star V380 Ori, in which we discovered a magnetic field in 2005. A careful study of the intensity spectrum reveals the presence…
We have analyzed GHRS data of eight Classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs) and one Weak T Tauri star (WTTS). The GHRS data consist of an spectral range 40 A wide centered on 2800 A. For 4 of the CTTS we have nearly simultaneous optical…
We present new high-resolution ($\sim$0\farcs09) $H$-band imaging observations of the circumstellar disk around the T Tauri star SU Aur. Our observations with Subaru-HiCIAO have revealed the presence of scattered light as close as 0\farcs15…
The circumstellar environments of classical T Tauri stars are challenging to directly image because of their high star-to-disk contrast ratio. One method to overcome this is by using imaging polarimetry where scattered and consequently…
From observations collected with the ESPaDOnS spectropolarimeter at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, we report the detection of Zeeman signatures on the low-mass classical TTauri star (cTTS) V2247Oph. Profile distortions and circular…
RSG stars are very massive cool evolved stars. Recently, a weak magnetic field was measured at the surface of $\alpha$ Ori and this is so far the only M-type supergiant for which a direct detection of a surface magnetic field has been…
We present results of non-simultaneous time-resolved photometric and spectroscopic observations of the little-studied dwarf nova FS Aur in quiescence. The spectrum of FS Aur shows strong and broad emission lines of hydrogen and HeI, and of…
V347 Aurigae is associated with the small dark cloud L1438 and appears to be an isolated pre-main sequence star located at distance $d\approx$200 pc. Multi-epoch, archival photometry reveals periodic brightness variations with amplitude…
While about two dozen Herbig Ae/Be stars have been reported to be magnetic, only two of them, HD101412 and HD190073, have had their magnetic field geometries studied in the past. The knowledge of the magnetic field structure is important to…
We report results of a spectropolarimetric monitoring of the young Sun-like star V1298~Tau based on data collected with the near-infrared spectropolarimeter SPIRou at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope between late 2019 and early 2023.…
Aims. In this paper, we aim to measure the strength of the surface magnetic fields for a sample of five intermediate mass T Tauri stars and one low mass T Tauri star from late-F to mid-K spectral types. While magnetic fields of T Tauri…
We present high sensitivity sub-arcsecond resolution images of the Herbig Ae star AB Aurigae at 11.6 and 18.5 microns taken with Michelle on Gemini North. Bright extended dust emission close to the star is resolved at both wavelengths, with…
