Abstract Force-free magnetic fields are defined by the equation rot $$\mathfrak{H} = \alpha \mathfrak{H}$$ . Making use of a moving Frenet coordinate system $$(\mathfrak{t} = tangential, \mathfrak{n} = normal, \mathfrak{b} = binormal unit vector)$$ we find the following general features of these fields: 1. grad $$\left| \mathfrak{H} \right|$$ is always parallel to the osculating plane of the $$\mathfrak{H}$$ -lines. 2. If the lines of force are rectilinear within a finite region of space, the component of grad $$\left| \mathfrak{H} \right|$$ along $$\left| \mathfrak{H} \right|$$ must be zero for a force-free field with rot . 3. The factor of proportionality $$\alpha = \alpha (\mathfrak{r})$$ and $$\mathfrak{H}$$ can be calculated by means of two equations involving only the direction of $$\left| \mathfrak{H} \right|$$ . For several models of force-free fields the effect of symmetry assumptions on $$\alpha = \alpha (\mathfrak{r})$$ is discussed using special coordinate systems. In the appendix it is pointed out that a particle drift arises in magnetic fields with .
