MHD Waves and Oscillations in Solar Coronal Waveguides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Perturbations of coronal structures by impulsive events such as solar flares generate waves which are interpreted with MHD theory. These waves allow plasma processes to be studied, and seismology of the local plasma parameters to be performed.

Comparison of Damping Mechanisms for Transverse Waves in Solar Coronal Loops [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2017
Abstract We present a method to assess the plausibility of alternative mechanisms to explain the damping of magnetohydrodynamic transverse waves in solar coronal loops. The considered mechanisms are resonant absorption of kink waves in the Alfvén continuum, phase mixing of Alfvén waves, and wave leakage.

MHD waves in the solar north polar coronal hole

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2010
AbstractThe effects, hitherto not treated, of the temperature and the number density gradients, both in the parallel and the perpendicular direction to the magnetic field, of O VI ions, on the MHD wave propagation characteristics in the solar North Polar Coronal Hole are investigated.

Radiative damping of standing acoustic waves in solar coronal loops [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2008
Context. A detailed understanding of the physical processes that determine the damping timescales of magneto-acoustic waves is essential to interpret diagnostic results from the application of solar magneto-seismology.\ud Aims. The influence of the transition region and the importance of radiative emission, arising from equilibrium and non-equilibrium ...

Slow magnetoacoustic standing waves in a curved solar coronal slab [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2008
Summary: Aims. We consider a model of a two-dimensional solar coronal arcade to explore the effects of a curved magnetic field topology on excitation and attenuation of slow magnetoacoustic standing waves. Methods. The time-dependent ideal magnetohydrodynamic equations are solved numerically to find the spatial and temporal signatures of these waves ...

THREE-DIMENSIONAL PROPAGATION OF MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC WAVES IN SOLAR CORONAL ARCADES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2010
We numerically investigate the excitation and temporal evolution of oscillations in a two-dimensional coronal arcade by including the three-dimensional propagation of perturbations. The time evolution of impulsively generated perturbations is studied by solving the linear, ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations in the zero-beta approximation.

Coronal Heating & Solar Wind Acceleration by Drift Waves

open access: yesJournal 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.

A Data‐Driven Model of the Geomagnetic Storm Recovery Phase

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract The recovery phase of geomagnetic storms poses a significant challenge for accurate space weather forecasting. Traditional models based on a constant decay rate fail to capture its prolonged and variable duration, leading to uncertainties in predicting impacts on technological systems.

Nonlinear fast magnetosonic waves in solar coronal holes [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & 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 ...

Exploring Jupiter's Mid‐Latitude Dusk Magnetopause: The Impact of Magnetic Reconnection

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract The Juno mission has elucidated magnetosphere processes, structure, and dynamics via multi‐instrument plasma and magnetic field observations. In this study, these instruments are used to identify magnetic reconnection during the Juno extended mission from a survey of 490 magnetopause crossings at the mid‐latitude southern dusk magnetopause ...
