| Description | Chemically peculiar (CP) stars are the upper Main Sequence stars with an unusual chemical composition of the atmosphere. Magnetic chemically peculiar (mCP) stars, a meaningful group of CP stars, are variable in light, magnetism and both spectroscopically. Unfortunately, some important, mainly historical photometric or spectroscopic data exist only in the form of published phase diagrams. In this article we would like to present a new method of the analysis of these phase diagrams. This method is able to transform the phase from phase diagrams to a virtual JD, which can substitute the real (but unknown) JD. |
