The Be/X-ray binary 1A 0535+262 is known as the accreting X-ray pulsar with the highest observed magnetic field. Usually the field strength is quoted as approx. 1O^13 G, based on the strong cyclotron line feature at ~110 keV observed by CGRO/OSSE during a giant outburst in 1994 (Grove et al., 1995, ApJ 438, L25). Observations by HEXE and TTM on Mir/Kvant of another giant outburst in 1989 had indicated cyclotron line features at ~50 and ~100 keV but the lower energy feature was of low significance (Kendziorra et al., 1994, A&A 291, L31).
