Emission in the 4d - 4f transitions of MnII (multiplet 13, 6122-6132 Ang), in the 4f - 6g transitions of PII, and in 6149.5 Ang of HgII has been detected in the spectrum of the helium weak star 3 Centauri A (B5 III-IVp). Weaker emission from the same MnII multiplet is also seen in the hot, mild HgMn star 46 Aquila (B9 III).It is suggested that the emission is of photospheric origin and may be evidence for the stratification of manganese, phosphorus and mercury in the photosphere of 3 CenA, and of manganese in 46Aql.
