摘要

An axially symmetric equilibrium model of Jupiter's magnetodisk is developed in the MHD approximation that takes the plasma corotation and the centrifugal force into account. The model is constructed for two cases: (1) the magnetodisk plasma is assumed to have a uniform temperature; (2) the plasma pressure is assumed to be an adiabatic function of density. Analytical expressions for the magnetic field, current density, and magnetodisk temperature and thickness distributions are obtained as functions of the system parameters, viz., the radial distribution of plasma pressure in the equatorial plane, the transverse magnetic field in the center of the layer, and the angular velocity of the plasma rotation.
