A numerical method is developed for solving the force-free magnetic field equation, V β’ B = aB, with spatially-varying c~. The boundary conditions required are the distribution of Bn (viz. normal component of the field on the photosphere) as well as the value of a in the region of positive (or negat
At first it is shown that a magnetic field being force-free, i.e. satisfying V β’ B = aB, with a = constant (ct r O) in the whole exterior of the Sun cannot have a finite energy content and cannot be determined uniquely from only one magnetic field component given at the photosphere. Then the boundar
