A model of a possible quasi-steady magnetosphere is developed for baryon stars (pulsars) assuming that the magnetic field is a dipole and that the axis of rotation corresponds with the direction of the magnetic moment (symmetrical rotator). Analyses are performed to describe the atmosphere of a baryon star without a magnetic field, physical conditions in the atmosphere with a strong magnetic field, the movement of charged particles along gravitational and magnetic force lines, and the effects of particle collisions. In this model, the magnetosphere is concentrated at the equatorial plane in a relatively thin layer and has the form of a ring with its radii dependent on the stellar mass and angular velocity. The total number of particles in the plasma is estimated, and it is shown that particle loss along the field lines is impossible because the protons are located in a deep potential well caused by centrifugal forces.
