New magnetic CP stars

Observations with the 6m telescope have revealed 25 new magnetic chemically peculiar stars. We selected candidates by analyzing the depression profile at a wavelength of 5200Å. This technique for selecting candidate magnetic stars is shown to be efficient: we have found magnetic fields in 25 from 40 objects that were selected for observations with the Zeeman analyzer. 11 of the rest 15 objects have wide lines and therefore the accuracy of measuremets is low in these cases, so it is not unlikely that part of these stars are magnetic too. We found several stars with very strong magnetic fields, among them HD178892 and HD343872 with the surface magnetic fields not less than 20 kG and 9 kG, respectively. In spite of the good efficiency of our method for selecting candidates, we have not found any correlation between the intensity of the depression profile and the value of the magnetic field.
