About article:
The (presumably fossil) magnetic fields in magnetic
Ap stars are expected to evolve as the stars pass through the main
sequence. Virtually no observational evidence currently constrains
this process, because ages of field Ap stars cannot be determined
accurately at present. To provide data about field evolution as a
function of age, we are studying the fields of Ap stars in
clusters. It is found that the fields, and probably the emergent
magnetic flux, decline with increasing age for Ap stars in the
range of 2 - 5 M☉.
