Abstract
Basing on the Schluter-Temesvary similarity condition for the magnetic flux in sunspot regions, on experimental horizontal profiles for the absolute v alue of the magnetic induction, and, for the first time, also on horizontal and vertical hydrodynamic momentum balances, analytical expressions for ho rizontal and altitudinal dependencies of the magnetic induction and the kin etic pressure of the sunspot plasma are derived.
