HD 232862: a magnetic and Lithium-rich giant field star
Abstract
From spectropolarimetric data and spectral synthesis analysis, we report the serendipitous discovery of an unusually high lithium content field giant. HD 232862, classified as a G8II star, appears to be the first Lithium-rich field giant star hosting a surface magnetic field.
