MHD Waves and Coronal Seismology: an overview of recent results
Recent observations have revealed that MHD waves and oscillations are ubiquitous in the solar atmosphere, with a wide range of periods. We give a brief review of some aspects of MHD waves and coronal seismology which have recently been the focus of ...

We propose that coronal heating in EUV coronal plumes is weaker, not stronger, than in adjacent nonplume coronal magnetic funnels. This expectation stems from (i) the observation that an EUV plume is born as the magnetic flux at the foot of the plume’s ...

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

Solar wind and kinetic heliophysics [PDF]
This paper reviews recent aspects of solar wind physics and elucidates the role Alfvén waves play in solar wind acceleration and turbulence, which prevail in the low corona and inner heliosphere.

The Source of Three-minute Magneto-acoustic Oscillations in Coronal Fans [PDF]
We use images of high spatial, spectral and temporal resolution, obtained using both ground- and space-based instrumentation, to investigate the coupling between wave phenomena observed at numerous heights in the solar atmosphere.

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

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

Estimating the Poynting Flux of Alfvénic Waves in Polar Coronal Holes across Solar Cycle 24
Alfvénic waves are known to be prevalent throughout the corona and solar wind. Determining the Poynting flux supplied by the waves is required for constraining their role in plasma heating and acceleration, as well as providing a constraint for Alfvén ...

The solar wind emanates from the hot and tenuous solar corona. Earlier studies using 1.5 dimensional simulations show that Alfv\'{e}n waves generated in the photosphere play an important role in coronal heating through the process of non-linear mode ...
