Scientific paper

The solution of basic flow equations of perfect magnetofluid in the fixed background of Kerr space-time has been obtained. The authors assume that magnetofluid (test) flow around a Kerr black hole is stationary and axisymmetric. A particular solution exhibits the property that flow lines lie on circles of constant radius. In addition, it is found that magnetofluid is endowed with "frozen-in" magnetic field - i.e., that it moves with the material.
