Scientific paper

We present the first analysis of the magnetic field geometry and elemental abundance distributions on the surface of a rapidly oscillating Ap (roAp) star, using an elaborate magnetic Doppler Imaging (MDI) code (Piskunov et al. 2002, Kochukhov et al. 2002), inv, which allows to reconstruct simultaneously and consistently the magnetic field geometry and abundance distributions on a stellar surface without any a priori assumptions. We analysed Stokes I and V time series obtained with the SOFIN polarimeter and recovered the magnetic field and surface abundance structures of Fe and Nd (among others). These two elements are found to be anticorrelated.
