Abstract
In a quasilinear approximation, for a special model of initial turbule nce the combined effect of the rotation and the large-scale toroidal m agnetic field was calculated. For large values of parameters of magnet ic field strength and rotation rate the intensity of turbulent motions is suppressed in inverse proportion to the product of a mean magnetic field strength and the rotation rate of the medium. With increasing m agnetic field strength and rotation rate. the inhomogeneity scale of t urbulence increases in the direction of both the magnetic field and th e angular velocity vector.
