Abstract (from CDS):

We report a discovery of the Zeeman resolved spectral lines, corresponding to the extremely large magnetic field modulus <Bs≥17.5kG, in the cool Ap star HD 178892. The mean longitudinal field of this star reaches 7.5kG, and its rotational modulation implies the strength of the dipolar magnetic component Bp≥23kG. We have revised rotation period of the star using the All Sky Automated Survey photometry and determined P=8.2478d. Rotation phases of the magnetic and photometric maxima of the star coincide with each other. We obtained Geneva photometric observation of HD 178892 and estimated Teff=7700±250K using photometry and the hydrogen Balmer lines. Preliminary abundance analysis reveals abundance pattern typical of rapidly oscillating Ap stars.
