Scientific paper

We outline a diagnostic technique for stellar magnetic fields based on spectropolarimetry of H Balmer lines. We present preliminary results of a survey of magnetic stars in open clusters carried out with FORS1 at the ESO VLT, aimed at examining the characteristics of the magnetic fields of intermediate-mass stars as they evolve onto and across the main sequence.
