This paper presents results obtained from Stokes I and V spectra of the B2Vp star sigma Ori E, observed by both the Narval and ESPaDOnS spectropolarimeters. Using Least- Squares Deconvolution, we investigate the longitudinal magnetic field…

We present new U-band photometry of the magnetic Helium-strong star Sigma Ori E, obtained over 2004-2009 using the SMARTS 0.9-m telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory. When combined with historical measurements, these data…

Sigma Ori E (HD 37479) is the prototypical helium-strong star shown to harbor a strong magnetic field, as well as a magnetosphere consisting of two clouds of plasma. The observed optical (ubvy) light curve of sigma Ori E is dominated by…

We attempt to characterize the observed variability of the magnetic helium-strong star sigma Ori E in terms of a recently developed rigidly rotating magnetosphere model. This model predicts the accumulation of circumstellar plasma in two…

We present results from three weeks' photometric monitoring of the magnetic helium-strong star sigma Ori E using the MOST microsatellite. The star's light curve is dominated by twice-per-rotation eclipse-like dimmings arising when…

We report the detection of an X-ray flare on the Bp star sigma Ori E with the ROSAT high resolution imager (HRI). The flare is shown to have likely occurred on the early-type star, rather than on an hypothesized late-type companion. We…

I review the basic concepts of the Rigidly Rotating Magnetosphere model for the circumstellar plasma distribution around the helium-strong star sigma Ori E. I demonstrate that the model can furnish a good fit to the photometric,…

Sigma Ori E, a massive helium B-type star, shows a high surface rotation and a strong surface magnetic field potentially challenging the process of wind magnetic braking. The Gaia satellite provides an accurate distance to that star and…

We have obtained 18 new high-resolution spectropolarimetric observations of the B2Vp star sigma Ori E with both the Narval and ESPaDOnS spectropolarimeters. The aim of these observations is to test, with modern data, the assumptions of the…

The initial success of the Rigidly Rotating Magnetosphere (RRM) model application to the B2Vp star sigma OriE by Townsend, Owocki & Groote (2005) triggered a renewed era of observational monitoring of this archetypal object. We utilize…

The ultraviolet stellar wind lines of the photometrically periodic variable early B-type star sigma Lupi were found to behave very similarly to what has been observed in known magnetic B stars, although no periodicity could be determined.…

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…

Massive B-type stars with strong magnetic fields and fast rotation are very rare and provide a mystery for theories of both star formation and magnetic field evolution. Only two such stars, called sigma Ori E analogs, were previously known.…

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…

In our search for new magnetic massive stars we use the strongest indirect indicator of a magnetic field in B stars, which is periodic variability of UV stellar wind lines occurring in a velocity range symmetric around zero. Our aim is to…

A team involved in APOGEE, one of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III programs, recently announced the discovery of two rare rigidly rotating magnetosphere stars, HD345439 and HD23478. Near-infrared spectra of these objects revealed…

NU Ori is a massive spectroscopic and visual binary in the Orion Nebula Cluster, with 4 components: Aa, Ab, B, and C. The B0.5 primary (Aa) is one of the most massive B-type stars reported to host a magnetic field. We report the detection…

For early type magnetic stars slow, at most moderate rotational velocities have been considered an observational fact. The detection of a multi-kilogauss magnetic field in the B2Vpn star with P approx. 0.52d and v sin approx. 300km/s has…

We report on the detection of a strong, organized magnetic field in the helium-variable early B-type star HR 7355 using spectropolarimetric data obtained with ESPaDOnS on CFHT by the MiMeS large program. We also present results from new…

The spectral and magnetic properties and variability of the B2Vnp emission-line magnetosphere star HR7355 were analyzed. The object rotates at almost 90% of the critical value, meaning it is a magnetic star for which oblateness and gravity…
