... The chemically peculiar star HD965 belongs to a rare type of very slow rotators. As far back as in the 90s, G.Mathys (ESO, Chile) supposed its extremely slow rotation as observing split Zeeman components in the spectrum, from which he measured the magnetic field on its surface. Field variation proved to be very slow, and G.Mathys determined that the variability period should be longer than two years. ... Up to now, only two stars with periods longer than 20 years are known. ...
