A relationship between the equilibrium luminosity and spin period in intermediate polars is used to determine the magnetic moment of the white dwarf in each system. It is found that the magnetic moment values are about 10 to the 33rd G cu cm, if accretion occurs via a disk. If accretion occurs without a disk, the values of the magnetic moment are in the range 10 to the 33rd-10 to the 34th.
