About article:
Magnetic fields have been frequently proposed as a likely source of variability
and confinement of the winds of massive stars. We have carried out ESPaDOnS
observations to search for direct evidence of such fields in the massive stars
of the Orion Nebula Cluster, detecting unambiguous Zeeman signatures in three
objects. These results bring forth new challenges in understanding the processes
leading to X-ray emission in massive stars.
