ξ<sup>1</sup>CMa: An Extremely Slowly Rotating Magnetic B0.7 IV Star

Abstract We present our analysis of 6 years of ESPaDOnS spectropolarimetry of the magnetic β Cep star ξ 1 CMa (B1 III). This high-precision magnetometry is consistent with a rotational period P rot &gt; 40 yr. Absorption line profiles can be reproduced with a non-rotating model. We constrain R ⋆ …
