Boron depletion in Galactic early B-type stars reveals two different main sequence star populations
Context. The evolution and fate of massive stars are thought to be affected by rotationally induced internal mixing. The surface boron abundance is a sensitive tracer of this in early B-type main sequence stars. Aims. We test current stellar evolution models of massive main sequence stars which include rotational mixing through a systematic study
