Scientific paper

A search for strong magnetic fields (at least about 1000 G) in rapidly rotating peculiar A stars has been made using the solar magnetograph technique on Balmer lines. Observations of 16 stars have been made with standard errors typically in the range of 300 to 700 gauss. No definite fields are found, and the results indicate that fields in excess of 1000 G are significantly less common among rapidly rotating Ap stars than among slowly rotating ones.
