More than 170 chemically peculiar (CP) stars will be observable by BRITE Constellation. These stars host a complex interplay of phenomena like strong magnetic fields, chemical diffusion, pulsation and rotation in the same object. Thus they serve as unique stellar laboratories where we can observe the correlation and interaction of these fundamental physical processes. We present here a summary of the unique potentials BRITE Constellation offers to obtain new insights in the atmospheric structure formation and the complex interplay of abundance variations, pulsation and magnetic fields under conditions that could never be reproduced on Earth.
