Alfvén Wave Propagation in the Io Plasma Torus

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
Io, the most volcanically active body in the solar system, fuels a plasma torus around Jupiter with dissociation products of SO2 at a rate of ~1,000 kg/s.

Investigating the Role of Inward Alfvén Waves and Structures in the Slow Solar Wind

The Astrophysical Journal
The solar wind dynamics are thought to be governed by counter-propagating Alfvén waves. Alfvén waves generate a turbulent cascade through nonlinear couplings between shearing wave packets. However, imbalances, structures, and intermittency complicate the

Distribution of equatorial Alfvén velocity in the magnetosphere: a statistical analysis of THEMIS observations

Earth, Planets and Space, 2018
It has been known that the Alfvén velocity plays a significant role in generation and propagation of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves. Until now, however, the global distribution of the Alfvén velocity in the magnetosphere has not been reported.

Damped transverse oscillations of interacting coronal loops

, 2015
Damped transverse oscillations of magnetic loops are routinely observed in the solar corona. This phenomenon is interpreted as standing kink magnetohydrodynamic waves, which are damped by resonant absorption owing to plasma inhomogeneity across the ...

Heating of coronal loops: weak MHD turbulence and scaling laws

, 2007
To understand the nonlinear dynamics of the Parker scenario for coronal heating, long-time high-resolution simulations of the dynamics of a coronal loop in cartesian geometry are carried out. A loop is modeled as a box extended along the direction of the

Nonlinear Alfvén waves, discontinuities, proton perpendicular acceleration, and magnetic holes/decreases in interplanetary space and the magnetosphere: intermediate shocks?

, 2005
International audienceAlfvén waves, discontinuities, proton perpendicular acceleration and magnetic decreases (MDs) in interplanetary space are shown to be interrelated. Discontinuities are the phase-steepened edges of Alfvén waves.

Modeling the Effects of a Light Bridge on Properties of Magnetohydrodynamic Waves in Solar Pores

The Astrophysical Journal
Solar pores are ideal magnetic structures for wave propagation and transport of energy radially outwards across the upper layers of the solar atmosphere.
