We also investigate the formation of the magnetic field of OBA stars before the Main Sequence (MS).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-01-03T16:29:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "magnetic field measurements", "statistics", "magnetic field values", "magnetic ob stars", "log-normal law" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
