A brief review of time-dependent theories of resonant mode coupling of Alfven waves in space plasmas is presented. A well behaved solution of the hydromagnetic wave equation for a general class of initial conditions is then discussed to understand the ...

Multiple-gap theory of toroidal Alfven waves with kinetic effects
The stability of kinetic toroidal Alfven waves with multi-gap coupling is analyzed by using the two-dimensional ballooning transform. An alternate convergence scheme, based on the smallness of the inverse aspect ratio, is devised.

MHD WAVES IN THE COLLISIONAL PLASMA OF THE SOLAR CORONA AND TERRESTRIAL IONOSPHERE
We have studied MHD waves (Alfvén and fast compressional modes) in a homogeneous collisional three-component low-β plasma. The three-component plasma consists of electrons, ions, and neutrals with arbitrary ratio between collision frequencies and wave ...

Characteristics of Alfven surface waves along moving cylindrical plasma columns [PDF]
The dispersive and stability characteristics of Alfven surface waves (ASW) along the boundary of the moving cylindrical plasma column, surrounded by a stationary medium embedded in a parallel magnetic field is studied.

Alfven surface waves along cylindrical plasma columns
The properties of Alfven surface waves along a cylindrical plasma column surrounded by vacuum or by another plasma medium are discussed. Both symmetric (m=0) and asymmetric (m=+or-1) modes are found to be dispersive in nature.

Alfven waves in spiral interplanetary field [PDF]
A theoretical study is presented of the Alfven waves in the spiral interplanetary magnetic field. The Alfven waves under consideration are arbitrary, large amplitude, non-monochromatic, microscale waves of any polarization. They superpose on a mesoscale

Nonlinear Resonant Three-Wave Interactions Of Alfven Waves
We will consider the nonlinear resonant three-wave interactions of Alfven waves. By using both analytic developments and numerical calculations, further insights into the nature of these nonlinear wave interactions are given.

On reflection of Alfven waves in the solar wind [PDF]
We have revisited the problem of propagation of toroidal and linear Alfven waves formulated by Heinemann and Olbert (1980) to compare WKB and non-WKB waves and their effects on the solar wind.
