Title: Magnetic fields in massive stars

Date: Friday May 25th, 2007
Time: 12:00
Venue: Villa Bazzoni

Abstract:
Although indirect evidence for the presence of magnetic fields in high-mass stars is regularly reported in the literature, the detection of these fields remains an extremely challenging observational problem.I will review the recent discoveries of magnetic fields in different types of massive stars and briefly discuss strategies for spectropolarimetric observations to be carried out in the future.
