Description
Summary:—The paper provides a review of important results of studies of chemically peculiar and related magnetic stars. More than 90 papers published in the world leading astronomical journals mainly in 2019 were analyzed. The most important results: high-accuracy photometric light curves were obtained during the TESS satellite; we discovered several dozen of new chemically peculiar magnetic stars; it was shown that large magnetic spots on cool stars exist for tens of years practically unchanged; we found several new magnetic white dwarfs with very weak fields; a strong magnetic white dwarf with a rotation period of about 100 years was discovered. New data have been obtained to better understand the mechanisms of formation and evolution of magnetic stars.
