The complex fossil magnetic field of the δ Scuti star HD 41641
ABSTRACT Only three magnetic δ Scuti stars are known as of today. HD 41641 is a δ Scuti star showing chemical peculiarities and rotational modulation of its light curve, making it a good magnetic candidate. We acquired spectropolarimetric observations of this star with NARVAL at Télescope Bernard Ly...
