  We present results for the estimation of gravity, effective temperature, and
radial velocity of poorly studied chemically peculiar stars recently observed
with the spectropolarimeter Echelle SpectroPolarimetric Device for Observations
of Stars at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope in the frame of the Vertical
Stratification of Element Abundances project. The effective temperature and
surface gravity values are determined for the very first time for four of the
stars from our sample (HD23878, HD83373, HD95608, and HD164584). Grids of
stellar atmosphere models with the corresponding fluxes have been calculated
using version 15 of the PHOENIX code for effective temperatures in the range of
5000-15,000 K, for the logarithm of surface gravities in the range of 3.0-4.5
and for the metallicities from -1.0 to +1.5. We used these fluxes to fit the
Balmer line profiles employing the code FITSB2 that produces estimates of the
effective temperature, gravity, and radial velocity for each star. When
possible, our results are compared to those previously published. The physical
characteristics of 16 program stars are discussed with the future aim to study
the abundance anomalies of chemical species and the possible vertical abundance
stratification in their stellar atmosphere.
