Swing wave-wave interaction:Coupling between fast magnetosonic and Alfven waves

open access: yes, 2002
We suggest a mechanism of energy transformation from fast magnetosonic waves propagating across a magnetic field to Alfven waves propagating along the field. The mechanism is based on swing wave-wave interaction [T. V. Zaqarashvili, Astrophys. J.

Exploring the Impact of Self-Excited Alfvén Waves on Transonic Winds: Applications in Galactic Outflows

open access: yesUniverse
The impact of cosmic rays is crucial to understand the energetic plasma outflows coming out from the Galactic centers against the strong gravitational potential well.

Plasma Frequency Waves in Earth's Electron Foreshock

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract At Earth's quasi‐perpendicular bow shock, electrons are reflected and accelerated to high velocities, forming beams. These beams excite Langmuir and beam‐mode waves in the electron foreshock region. The waves can then be converted to radio waves via linear or nonlinear processes.

Coronal heating by Alfven waves

open access: yes, 2019
Coronal heating by Alfven waves is reexamined considering the effect of the the granular structure of the sun's surface. From the observation that the Alfven waves in the sun's atmosphere are originally generated by the surface granular motion,

Microscale Alfven waves in the solar wind at 1 AU [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
Analysis of IMP 1 (Explorer 43) plasma and magnetic field fluctuations on a scale of one hour revealed that linearly and circularly polarized Alfven waves are rarely present in the solar wind at 1 AU.

Detection of waves in the solar corona : kink or Alfven?

open access: yes, 2008
Recently, the omnipresence of waves has been discovered in the corona using the CoMP instrument. We demonstrate that the observational findings can be explained in terms of guided kink magnetoacoustic modes.

Coupling of the solar wind, magnetosphere and ionosphere by MHD waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The solar wind, magnetosphere and ionosphere are coupled by magnetohydrodynamic waves, and this gives rise to new and often unexpected behaviours that cannot be produced by a single, isolated part of the system.

Poloidal Field Line Resonances Driven by a Fast Wave

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
We present numerical simulations of the excitation of resonant poloidal Alfvén waves. The resulting Alfvén waves could be loosely described as “high‐m” (m is the azimuthal wave number) in as much as the azimuthal scale of the wave is much less than the ...

A Mechanism for the Generation of Enhanced Fluxes at Discrete Energies on the Wakes of the Galilean Moons

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract In this study, we propose a new mechanism to explain the observed particle flux at discrete energies in the flux tubes connecting to the wakes of the Galilean moons, first reported by Sarkango et al. (2024, https://doi.org/10.1029/2023gl107431) and referred to as “banded flux.” We demonstrate the proposed mechanism using test particle ...

Drift Echoes at Geostationary Orbit: An Eight‐Year Climatology From GOES‐16

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Drift echoes are energy‐dispersed recurrences in energetic particle flux that appear when a localized injection or compression organizes trapped ions and electrons according to their azimuthal drift. Although established as tracers of radiation‐belt dynamics, drift echoes have rarely been surveyed statistically at geostationary orbit. We apply
