About article:
The slowly rotating CP star HD 188041 is subjected to an
analysis of its magnetic field structure by the modelling method of
the Magnetic Charge Distribution (MCD), using the
photographic measurements of Babcock. The first attempt to fit
Babcock's observational results to a model of a central magnetic
dipole gives two possible solutions for the angle between the
magnetic and rotational axes β1 = 6°
or
β2 = 76.8° corresponding to inclination
angles i1 = 80.5° and i2 =
14°.
With a decentralization of the dipole, the fitting of the phase
curve of Beff to the data by minimizing the
sum of the quadratic deviations could be improved, while changing i
and β only slightly.
