AN ATTEMPT AT RADIO OBSERVATION OF Ap STARS,

Abstract

Twelve Ap stars were observed with a radio interferometer at 6.2 cm wavelength. An upper limit of radio flux was found for all of the stars. The absence of radio emission indicates a relatively steady electromagnetic nature for Ap stars. The amount of synchrotron radiation possible cannot produce the variable light and color of these stars. (Author)
