On the Inference of a Star's Inclination Angle from its Rotation Velocity and Projected Rotation Velocity

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for the probabilistic inference of the inclination of a star's rotation axis based on independent data sets that constrain the star rotation velocity and its projection onto our line of sight is presented.

Does Rotation Alone Determine Whether an A-type Star’s Spectrum is Abnormal or Normal?

TL;DR: The principal abnormalities among A-type stars are the metallic-line (Am) and peculiar A (Ap) stars as mentioned in this paper, where diffusion occurs in stars rotating at less than about 120km 8 -1 allowing certain elements to sink and others to rise into the atmosphere.

Multiplicity of late-type B stars with HgMn peculiarity

TL;DR: In this article, the multiplicity of chemically peculiar stars, looking for visual companions in the range of angular separation between 0.5 and 1700 AU, was studied. But the results were limited to binary and multiple systems.
