Continuum Enhancement and Line Asymmetries of Solar Flares in Different Heating Models: Alfvén Waves, Nonthermal Electron Beams, and Their Joint Effect

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
How the plasma in the atmosphere is heated during a solar flare remains inconclusive. Nonthermal electron beams are usually considered as an essential heating source, yet Alfvén waves have also been proposed as a promising heating mechanism.

Driven Phase-mixed Alfvén Waves in a Partially Ionized Solar Plasma

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Phase mixing has long been understood to be a viable mechanism for expediting the dissipation of Alfvén wave energy resulting in the subsequent heating of the solar atmosphere.

Damping of high frequency waves in the solar wind [PDF]

open access: yes
Cyclotron damping by suprathermal fluxes of protons and electrons in the interplanetary medium will greatly attenuate high frequency Alfven waves and whistler waves within distances 1 AU of the sun.

Penetration to the Earth's surface of standing Alfvén waves excited by external currents in the ionosphere

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae
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 <i>m</i>»1 are considered. In our
