Abstract

The atmospheres of magnetic chemically peculiar (mCP) stars display the presence of magnetic fields of different geometry and strength, ranging from a few hundred G up to tens of kG. Except several very approximate attempts there were no detailed studies of magnetic field effects on model atmospheres structure, possibly leading to errors in the stellar parameter determination and abundance analysis routines. We present the magnetic model atmospheres based on LLmodels code which accounts for the detailed treatment of anomalous Zeeman splitting and polarized radiative transfer.
