Testing the Rossby Paradigm: Weakened Magnetic Braking in Early K-type Stars

Testing the Rossby Paradigm: Weakened Magnetic Braking in Early K-type Stars

There is an intricate relationship between the organization of large-scale magnetic fields by a stellar dynamo and the rate of angular momentum loss due to magnetized stellar winds. An essential ingredient for the operation of a large-scale dynamo is the Coriolis force, which imprints organizing flo...
