โฆ Synopsis
We show that up to second order in the thinness parameter, the equations of equilibrium of a thin, isolated, axisymmetrie, force-free magnetic flux tube in a stratified atmosphere and the other essential constraints form a mathematically closed system. Auxiliary assumptions about temperature of the tube plasma are neither needed nor possible.
