Detection of a large-scale organized 2 kG order magnetic field in the Herbig Ae star HD179218

S. P. Järvinen, S. Hubrig, M. Schöller +5

While about two dozen Herbig Ae/Be stars have been reported to be magnetic, only two of them, HD101412 and HD190073, have had their magnetic field geometries studied in the past. T…
