Scientific paper

The dipole structure of the magnetic field on distances ge 1 kpc from an active galactic nucleus is discussed. Two different models of the magnetic field around a supermassive black hole on the scale of the accretion disk are tested. The first model suggests a superstrong field of the order of 1010 Gauss (Kardashev \cite{Kardashev95}), the other one proposed by Field & Rodgers (\cite{Field93}) predicts much lower values ( ~ 104 Gauss).
