    A Nonstop Aurora? The Intriguing Radio Emission from the Rapidly Rotating Magnetic Massive Star HR 5907
    HR 5907 (HD 142184) stands out among magnetic OB stars for its rapid rotation, exceptionally hard X-ray emission, and strong magnetic field. High-frequency (>5...

    Giant white-light flares on fully convective stars occur at high latitudes
    In a systematic analysis of fully convective stars observed with TESS, we detected four stars that displayed giant flares that were...

    Instrumental polarization in the focal plane of telescopes. 2: Effects induced by seeing
    This work quantifies the influence of the terrestrial atmosphere on the instrumental polarization (IP) of telescopes. Our numerical simulations show that seeing...

    Magnetic Fields in a Sample of Planet-hosting M Dwarf Stars from Kepler, K2, and TESS Observed by APOGEE
    Stellar magnetic fields have a major impact on space weather around exoplanets orbiting low-mass stars. From an analysis of Zeeman-broadened Fe I lines measured...

    Non-local thermodynamic equilibrium line profiles, rotation, and magnetic fields in seven DA white dwarfs
    Non-LTE calculations of H-alpha line profiles are presented and applied to derive rotational velocities from high-resolution spectra of DA white dwarfs. This...

    Observed differences between large and small sunspots
    We confirm recent results about the differences in temperature and magnetic field strength between the umbra of large and small sunspots. Five Stokes I- and V...

    The age decay of stellar magnetic activity in MS field solar-type stars
    The age decay of two indicators of the stellar magnetic activity (λ2800 Mg II emission flux and λ10830 He I equivalent width) have been studied for field solar...
