Solar flares and coronal shock waves [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2001 The ignition of coronal shock waves by solar flares is investigated confronting the results of a simple MHD model with the observations. Characteristics of type II bursts recorded in the metric and decametric wavelength range are compared with the properties of the microwave and soft X‐ray bursts of the associated flares.

The Heating of Solar Coronal Loops by Alfvén Wave Turbulence [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2017 Abstract In this paper we further develop a model for the heating of coronal loops by Alfvén wave turbulence (AWT). The Alfvén waves are assumed to be launched from a collection of kilogauss flux tubes in the photosphere at the two ends of the loop.

Nonlinear fast magnetosonic waves in solar coronal holes [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2001 Summary: A coronal hole is modeled as a slab of cold plasma threaded by a vertical, uniform magnetic field. A periodic driver acting at the coronal base is assumed to drive the velocity component normal to the equilibrium magnetic field. Previous works indicate that, in the linear regime, only fast mode perturbations propagate, since Alfvén waves are ...

Short period fast waves in solar coronal loops [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2003 Short period fast magnetoacoustic waves propagating along solar coronal loops, perturbing the loop boundary along the line of sight (LOS), may be observed by imaging telescopes. The relationship between the difference in emission intensity, the angle between the LOS and the direction of propagation and the wave amplitude and wavelength, is explored for

The role of torsional Alfven waves in coronal heating [PDF]
, 2009 In the context of coronal heating, among the zoo of MHD waves that exist in the solar atmosphere, Alfven waves receive special attention. Indeed, these waves constitute an attractive heating agent due to their ability to carry over the many different ...

Coronal Heating & Solar Wind Acceleration by Drift Waves
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2015 An alternative approach to the coronal heating problem, based on the theory of drift waves, has been proposed. The drift mode is the only mode that is able to survive the drastically different (collisional/collisionless) extremes in the different layers of the solar atmosphere. As a matter of fact, this mode is over stable, i.e.

High-frequency waves in the solar coronal plasma [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2006 We derived numerical solutions of a dispersion equation in order to analyze the effect of finite plasma temperature on the highfrequency wave dispersion characteristics in conditions of hot magnetized plasma in the solar corona. Spectra of the high-frequency eigen modes of these plasma were determined in conditions when the electron gyrofrequency is ...

The Effect of Steady Flow on the Physical Quantities of Slow mMagneto Acoustic Waves in Solar Coronal Plasma [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2020 textbf{Damping of slow magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) waves and oscillations are believed to contribute to the heating of the solar corona. Since the launch of solar space telescopes, many observational evidences for the occurrence of slow MHD waves have been ...

Influence of the Lower Atmosphere on Wave Heating and Evaporation in Solar Coronal Loops
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We model a coronal loop as a 3D magnetic cylinder in a realistic solar atmosphere that extends from the chromosphere to the corona. Kink oscillations, believed to be ubiquitous in the solar corona, are launched in the loop.
