Abstract

It is shown that in an ideal frozen-in plasma which can move in an arbitary direction across the magnetic field there is a definite current which does not depend on the flow velocity. The pattern of the distributed currents in the inner magnetosphere and its value, the global system of field-aligned currents and the influence of the components B z and By of the interplanetary magnetic field on the field-aligned current and on the convection potential are explained with help of this current.
