The nature of fast magnetoacoustic and Alfv\'en waves is investigated in a zero $\beta$ plasma in the neighbourhood of a pair of two-dimensional null points. This gives an indication of wave propagation in the low $\beta$ solar corona, for…
The nature of fast magnetoacoustic and Alfv\'en waves is investigated in a zero $\beta$ plasma. This gives an indication of wave propagation in the low $\beta$ solar corona. It is found that for a two-dimensional null point, the fast wave…
This paper is the third in a series of investigations by the authors. The nature of fast magnetoacoustic and Alfv\'en waves is investigated in a 2D $\beta=0$ plasma in the neighbourhood of two dipoles. We use both numerical simulations…
The Alfven wave is analyzed in case of one quasineutral plasma propagating with some constant speed $v_0$ through another static quasineutral plasma. A dispersion equation is derived describing the Alfven wave coupled with the flow driven…
We present a comprehensive review of MHD wave behaviour in the neighbourhood of coronal null points: locations where the magnetic field, and hence the local Alfven speed, is zero. The behaviour of all three MHD wave modes, i.e. the Alfven…
We investigate the behaviour of nonlinear, nonideal Alfv\'en wave propagation within an inhomogeneous magnetic environment. The governing MHD equations are solved in 1D and 2D using both analytical techniques and numerical simulations. We…
The origin and evolution of the 1/f power law observed in the energy spectrum of solar coronal and solar wind fluctuations at scales of around an hour is not entirely understood. Several existing theories aim at explaining it, involving…
Corrected analytical solutions describing the enhanced phase mixing of Alfven waves propagating in divergent stratified coronal structures are presented. These show that the enhanced phase mixing mechanism can dissipate Alfven waves at…
Context: MHD waves and magnetic null points are both prevalent in many astrophysical plasmas, including the solar atmosphere. Interaction between waves and null points has been implicated as a possible mechanism for localised heating…
Plasma ions heating (especially minor heavy ions preferential heating) in fast solar wind and solar corona is an open question in space physics. However, Alfv\'en waves have been always considered as a candidate of energy source for corona…
The aim of the present study is to shed light on the effects connected with thermal misbalance due to non-equal cooling and heating rates induced by density and temperature perturbations in solar active regions hosting either propagating…
In the Earth auroral zone, the electron acceleration by Alfv\'en waves is sometimes a precursor of the non-propagating acceleration structures. In order to investigate how Alfv\'en waves could generate non-propagating electric fields, a…
Phase mixing has long been understood to be a viable mechanism for expediting the dissipation of Alfv\'en wave energy resulting in the subsequent heating of the solar atmosphere. To fulfil the conditions necessary for phase mixing to occur,…
Non-uniformity plays an important role for MHD waves. For a uniform plasma of infinite extent the MHD waves can be subdivided in two classes with distinct properties. The first class contains the Alfv\'en waves. The Alfv\'en waves are…
We consider a series of MHD simulations in which a small amplitude, transverse velocity perturbation is introduced into a complex magnetic field. We analysed the deformation of the wave fronts as the perturbation propagates through the…
We present the results of three-dimensional (3D) ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations on the dynamics of a perpendicularly inhomogeneous plasma disturbed by propagating Alfv\'enic waves. Simpler versions of this scenario have been…
Complete asymptotic expansions are developed for slow, Alfv\'en and fast magnetohydrodynamic waves at the base of an isothermal three-dimensional (3D) plane stratified atmosphere. Together with existing convergent Frobenius series solutions…
In this work we used Particle-In-Cell simulations to study the interaction of circularly polarised Alfv\'en waves with one dimensional plasma density inhomogeneities transverse to the uniform magnetic field (phase mixing) in collisionless…
In this paper, we study the weakly-compressive high-frequency plasma waves which are superposed on a large-amplitude Alfv\'en wave in a multi-fluid plasma consisting of protons, electrons, and alpha particles. For these waves, the plasma…
We investigate the interaction of a plane, linearly polarized, Alfvenic pulse with a one-dimensional, perpendicular to the magnetic field, plasma density inhomogeneity in the strongly nonlinear regime. Our numerical study of the full MHD…
