Scientific paper

We report the results of magnetic field modelling of around 50 CP stars, performed using the "magnetic charges" technique. The modelling shows that the sample reveals four main types of magnetic configurations: 1) a central dipole, 2) a dipole, shifted along the axis, 3) a dipole, shifted across the axis, and 4) complex structures. The vast majority of stars has the field structure of a dipole, shifted from the center of the star. This shift can have any direction, both along and across the axis. A small percentage of stars possess field structures, formed by two or more dipoles.
