Description
About 10 % of upper main sequence stars, classified as chemically peculiar (CP) stars have anomalous abundance of chemical elements on their surface layers. A subgroup of hot CP stars with strong abundance of helium have not only a stellar wind, but also a strong magnetic field. The spin-down of these stars is probably caused by angular momentum loss through their magnetic stellar wind.
