自1970年以来，在26颗白色矮星中发现了磁场，但这并不能否定巴布科克工作的基本推论--在已知的1000多颗白色矮星中，大多数都没有强磁场。虽然越来越多的证据表明，磁简并体的质量比一般的白色矮星要大，但少数星体强磁场的起源仍然是一个未解决的问题。本文是庆祝太平洋天文学会成立一百周年的一系列特邀评论之一，另见004.165。
Discoveries of magnetic fields in 26 white dwarfs since 1970 do not negate the basic inference from the work of Babcock - that most of the over 1000 known white dwarfs do not have strong magnetic fields. The origin of the strong fields in the minority remains an unsolved problem, although evidence is growing that the magnetic degenerates are more massive than the average white dwarf. This paper is one of a series of invited reviews celebrating the centenary of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, see also 004.165.
