Abstract To explain the observed phenomenon of 11-year sunspot cycle with two peaks, we draw attention to the possible role of the turbulent magnetic pumping effects in the solar convection zone (SCZ) at the reconstructing of the toroidal magnetic field that generates the sunspots. Turbulent radial pumping of magnetic field has both kinetic (diamagnetism) and magnetic (vertical advection) contributions. We take into account five physical processes for the combined magnetic reconstructing in deep layers of the SCZ. They are the Ω effect near the tachocline, magnetic buoyancy of the smoothed field, macroscopic diamagnetism, rotational magnetic advection, and deep equatorward meridional circulation. It is the effect of advection with taking into account Sun's rotation that plays a key role in the proposed scenario of magnetic reconstructing. We found that reconstructing of deep toroidal field develops differently in the near-polar and equatorial domains of the SCZ. In the lower half of the near-polar domain, two downward pumping effects (diamagnetism and advection) act against magnetic buoyancy and, as a result, they neutralize magnetic buoyancy and thereby block the toroidal field near the tachocline. At the same time, in the deep layers of the equatorial domain, the rotational advection due to the latitudinal convection anisotropy changes its direction to the opposite (from downward to upward), thereby helping magnetic buoyancy. As a result, this upward magnetic pumping here contributes to the transport of the toroidal field to the solar surface. We call this transport as first upward magnetic advection surge. It ensures a transfer of the deep strong fields to the surface in the latitudes belt of sunspots. Meanwhile, a deep equatorward meridional flow transports the blocked near pole toroidal field in the tachocline from high latitudes to low ones where are favourable conditions for floating up of the magnetic field. Here this belated field is transported upward to the solar surface (the second upward magnetic advection surge). Ultimately, two time-delayed upward magnetic surges may cause on the surface in the “royal zone” the first and second peaks of the sunspots cycle.
