Scientific paper

A hypothesis is discussed, according to which the magnetic field in convective shells of stars compensates for the mean azimuthal force (which is equivalent to negative viscosity) generated by convective motions. Some examples are cited which support the existence of a negative viscosity effect. The hypothesis postulates that the azimuthal force is expanded both for sustaining the differential rotation of the medium and the stretching of the lines of forces in the formation of a toroidal field from a poloidal one. It also assumes that the change in direction of the poloidal field component occurs at the end of the amplification phase in a certain layer located below the main amplification zone of the field, and that the mechanism of this change is associated with instability.
