The return-flux sunspot model is generalized by including azimuthal magnetic field B e . The basic equation is obtained and numerical solutions are compared with the analogous solutions for the Schl~iter-Temesvary sunspot theory for two cases: B e ~ B r and B e ~ rB r. The solutions demonstrate that

✦ Synopsis
It is shown that the internal structure of sunspots is affected only to a small degree by the presence of the azimuthal component of the sunspot magnetic field. The magnetostatic theory of sunspots developed by Schltiter and Temesvary (1958) is extended to include such an effect. In the present study, the radial dependence of the azimuthal component of the field is adopted from the observation of Stepanov (1965). A typical sunspot of an effective temperature of 4000 K is considered and its detailed structure is presented. * Publications of the Goethe Link Observatory, No. 115.
