| Abstract: | Model atmospheres are computed for the three known magnetic DN white dwarfs. Using these, a calculation of line and circular polarization profile is performed for the first four Balmer lines assuming centred or decentred dipolar field geometries inclined, in general, to the line of sight. It is found that the results give good overall agreement with the observations of these three stars. |
