Equilibrium of self gravitating polytropic cylinders with a magnetic field

The equations of hydromagnetics for a self-gravitating fluid of infinite conductivity are examined in the axisymmetric case in terms of toroidal and poloidal scalars. The stationary state with non-zero poloidal velocity scalar admits and analytical solution for polytropic cylinder of infinite length with a prevalent toroidal magnetic field. The case when the poloidal velocity scalar is zero is also considered.
