The magnetic field of HD 101065.
Abstract
Zeeman spectroscopic observations show that HD 101065 (Przybylski's star) has a magnetic field strength of about -2200 gauss. The limited observations available show no evidence of magnetic or spectrum variability. Observations of the Am star 8 Nor were made in order to determine whether systematic errors were present in the determination of He, and these data yield an upper limit of 150 gauss for the field of 8 Nor. Key words: peculiar A star - magnetic fields - rare-earth elements
