Understanding the Radio Emission from the β Cep Star V2187 Cyg by Luis F. Rodríguez, Susana Lizano, Jorge Cantó, Ricardo F. González, Mauricio Tapia

“…We conclude that, despite the spectral index suggestive of free–free emission from an ionized wind, the radio emission of V2187 Cyg most likely has a magnetic origin, a possibility that can be tested with a sensitive search for circular polarization in the radio, as expected from gyrosynchrotron radiation and also by trying to measure the stellar magnetic field, which is expected to be in the range of several kilogauss.…”
