AbstractThis investigation is devoted to study the turbulent convective transport of mean (large-scale) magnetic field in the solar convection zone (SCZ). For the SCZ model by Stix (1989) the reconstruction of the toroidal field was calculated as a result of the balance of mean-field magnetic buoyancy and two “negative magnetic buoyancy” effects: i) macroscopic turbulent diamagnetism and ii) the ∇ρ effect. It is shown that at high latitudes negative buoyancy effects block the magnetic fields, about 3000 – 4000 G, near the bottom of the SCZ. This may be the most plausible reason why a deep-seated field here could not become as apparent at the solar surface as sunspots. However, at the near equatorial domain in the deep layers the ∇ρ effect, with allowance for rotation, causes the upward magnetic transport, that facilitates penetration of strong fields to the surface where they emerge as sunspot patters in the “royal zone”.
