1. Chemically Peculiar/Magnetic Stars and the  a photometry Hans Michael Maitzen, Ernst Paunzen Institute for Astronomy, University of Vienna

2. Properties F Strong magnetic field implies chemical peculiarity F Spectral range: B0 - F2 F Low rotational velocities F Variability F about 5% of all stars in this spectral range

3. Notation according to Preston

4. History facts I F 1897: Detection by Antonia Maury  1914: Guthnik and Prager observe for the first time the light curve of the prototype star  2 CVn F 1933: Morgan finds correlation between temperature and chemical composition F 1947: Babcock discovers magnetic fields F 1950: Stibbs develops the Oblique Rotator Theory

5. History facts II F 1958: Deutsch publishes the first abundance maps of the surface for peculiar stars F 1968: Kodaira discovers flux depressions at 4100Å, 5200Å and 6300Å F 1974: Preston introduces a new classification scheme for peculiar stars which is still in use  1976: First  a observations published  2001: First chemically peculiar stars detected in the LMC by  a photometry

6. Classification resolution spectroscopy

7. Origin of magnetic fields F Dynamo Theory: Rotation produces self induction F Theory of the fossil magnetic field: interstellar origin pre-main sequence evolution

8. Characteristics of magnetic fields F Dipole F Quadrupole  Rotational axis   agnetic axis  300 G  H eff  40 kG F Sun: 10 G (up to 4000 G) F Jupiter: 5 - 20 G F Earth: 0.3 - 0.6 G

9. Variability – Magnetic field
