Compressional Alfvén cross-field surface waves in inhomogeneous dusty plasmas [PDF]
Compressional Alfvén surface waves in an inhomogeneous dusty plasma are studied. The inhomogeneiry is modeled by two distinct regions of dusty plasmas with different ion densities. The stationary external magnetic field is along the interface between the

Phase Mixing of Propagating Alfvén Waves in a Single-fluid Partially Ionized Solar Plasma
The phase mixing of Alfvén waves is one of the most promising mechanisms for the heating of the solar atmosphere. The damping of waves in this case requires small transversal scales, relative to the magnetic field direction; this requirement is achieved ...

Alfvén waves related to moon-magnetosphere interactions [PDF]
editorial reviewedThe electro-dynamic interactions between moons and the magnetosphere of their parent planets has been investigated since the mid-20th century and the implication of the Alfvén waves was suspected right away. However, in the first models,

Penetration to the Earth's surface of standing Alfvén waves excited by external currents in the ionosphere [PDF]
The problem of boundary conditions for monochromatic Alfvén waves, excited in the magnetosphere by external currents in the ionospheric E-layer, is solved analytically. Waves with large azimuthal wave numbers m»1 are considered.

Alfvén-Magnetosonic Waves Interaction [PDF]
The nonlinear propagation of the Alfvén and magnetosonic waves in the solar corona is investigated in terms of model equations. Due to viscous effects taken into account the propagation of the Alfvén wave itself is governed by a Burgers-type equation ...

Torsional Alfvén waves: magneto-seismology in static and dynamic coronal plasmas [PDF]
Aims: We study the properties of torsional Alfvén waves in coronal loops so that they may be exploited for coronal seismological applications. Methods: The governing equation is obtained for standing torsional Alfvén waves of a dynamic, gravitationally

Coupling Between Alfvén Wave and Kelvin–Helmholtz Waves in the Low Latitude Boundary Layer
The Kelvin–Helmholtz (KH) instability of magnetohydrodynamic surface waves at the low latitude boundary layer is examined using both an eigenfrequency analysis and a time-dependent wave simulation.

Ion acceleration by parallel propagating nonlinear Alfvén wave packets in a radially expanding plasma [PDF]
The numerical simulation of the nonlinear evolution of the parallel propagating Alfvén waves in a radially expanding plasma is performed by using a kinetic-fluid model (the Vlasov–MHD model). In our study, both the nonlinear evolution of the Alfvén waves
