NGC 1624-2: A slowly rotating, X-ray luminous Of?cp star with an extraordinarily strong magnetic field
Gregg A. Wade,J. Maíz Apellániz,Fabrice Martins,Véronique Petit,Jason Grunhut,Nolan R. Walborn,Rodolfo H. Barbá,Marc Gagné,E. García-Melendo,Jessy Jose,A. F. J. Moffat,Yaël Nazé,Coralie Neiner,Anne Pellerin,M. Penadés Ordaz,M. Shultz,Sergio Simón-Díaz,Alfredo Sota +17 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a first observational investigation of the faint Of?cp star NGC 1624-2, yielding important new constraints on its spectral and physical characteristics, rotation, magnetic field strength, X-ray emission and magnetospheric properties.

Magnetic field topologies of the bright, weak-field Ap stars theta Aurigae and epsilon Ursae Majoris
TL;DR: In this article, a multi-line technique of least-squares deconvolution was employed to detect polarisation signatures in spectral lines, which were modelled with a Zeeman-Doppler imaging code.
Critical evaluation of magnetic field detections reported for pulsating B-type stars in the light of ESPaDOnS, Narval and reanalyzed FORS1/2 observations

TL;DR: In this paper, a re-analysis of the published longitudinal field measurements obtained with the low-resolution FORS1/2 spectropolarimeters finds that all stars show more scatter from zero than can be attributed to Gaussian noise, suggesting the presence of a signal and/or systematic under-estimation of error bars.

TL;DR: The Magnetism in Massive Stars (MiMeS) project as discussed by the authors is a consensus collaboration among many of the foremost international researchers of the physics of hot, massive stars, with the basic aim of understanding the origin, evolution and impact of magnetic fields in these objects.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied least squares deconvolution (LSD) to infer the longitudinal magnetic field from each Stokes $V$ spectrum, and used the timeseries of longitudinal field measurements, in combination with CoRoT photometry and equivalent width measurements of magnetospheric spectral lines, to estimate the rotation period of the magnetic star.
