Scientific paper

The evolution of a large-scale magnetic field in a turbulent jet in an extragalactic radio source is examined. Self-similar solutions are found for a weak poloidal magnetic field transported by a turbulent jet of incompressible fluid. It is shown that the radial profiles of these solutions are the eigenfunctions of a linear differential operator. The evolution of a large-scale magnetic field is strongly dependent on the field's configuration. It is concluded that the observed magnetic field of extragalactic radio jets can be represented by the small-scale anisotropic field generated by turbulence inside the jets.
