Abstract
Diagnosis of Ap star magnetic fields through spectroscopic methods is a broad topic, which cannot be fully covered within the rather tight limits of this contribution. Accordingly, the latter is devoted to only one particular approach, namely the determination of the mean magnetic field modulus from the observation of resolved magnetically split lines in high-dispersion spectra taken in unpolarized light. This determination is straightforward, mostly approximation free and model independent. The derived quantity, the mean magnetic field modulus, is the line-intensity weighted average over the visible stellar hemisphere of the modulus of the magnetic vector.
