The MiMeS Survey of Magnetism in Massive Stars

The Magnetism in Massive Stars (MiMeS) survey represents a high precision systematic search for magnetic fields in hot, massive OB stars. To date, MiMeS Large Programs (ESPaDOnS@CFHT, Narval@TBL, HARPSpol@ESO3.6) and associated PI programs (FORS@VLT) have yielded nearly 1200 circular spectropolarime...
