Magnetic fields influence stellar wind variability.
Magnetic fields affect X-ray emission in O stars.
Abstract
Over the last decade, large-scale, organized (generally dipolar) magnetic fields with a strength between 0.1 and 20 kG were detected in dozens of OB stars. This contribution reviews the impact of such magnetic fields on the stellar winds of O-stars, with emphasis on variability and X-ray emission.
