Abstract
We present an analysis of hydrogen Balmer line shapes observed in two white dwarf spectra. One spectrum presents singlet lines while the second one presents lines with a triplet structure. The latter is a feature of the presence of a strong magnetic field. Using both Stark and Zeeman effects, we infer the density and the magnetic field. Our line shape calculations employ a computer simulation technique. The radiative transfer is accounted for through a onedimensional slab model.
