The weakly nonlinear interaction of sound and linearly polarised Alfv{\'e}n waves propagating in the same direction along an applied magnetic field is studied. It is found that a sound wave is coupled to the Alfv{\'e}n wave with double…
In the present work, we test the predictions of the AWSoM model, a global extended-MHD model capable of calculating the propagation and turbulent dissipation of Alfv\'en waves in any magnetic topology, against high resolution spectra of the…
A novel 2D nonlinear dynamical paradigm is constructed to interpret the fast and repetitive frequency chirping and amplitude oscillation of Alfv\'en eigenmodes excited by energetic particles in fusion plasmas as observed in global…
Using two-dimensional hybrid-kinetic simulations, we explore the nonlinear "interruption" of standing and traveling shear-Alfv\'en waves in collisionless plasmas. Interruption involves a self-generated pressure anisotropy removing the…
We present a novel method to evaluate the Alfven speed and the magnetic field strength along the streamer plasma sheet in the outer corona. The method is based on recent observations of streamer waves, which are regarded as the fast kink…
Coronal loops act as resonant cavities for low frequency fluctuations that are transmitted from the deeper layers of the solar atmosphere and are amplified in the corona, triggering nonlinear interactions. However trapping is not perfect,…
One view of the solar-wind turbulence is that the observed highly anisotropic fluctuations at spatial scales near the proton inertial length $d_p$ may be considered as Kinetic Alfv\'en waves (KAWs). In the present paper, we show how…
The phenomenon of nonlinear wave mixing is investigated in a Yukawa one-component plasma using two-dimensional classical Langevin molecular dynamics simulations. The wave spectrum indicates that nonlinear interactions between the excited…
In space and astrophysical plasmas, turbulence is responsible for transferring energy from large scales driven by violent events or instabilities, to smaller scales where turbulent energy is ultimately converted into plasma heat by…
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…
Rockets and satellites have previously observed small-scale Alfv\'en waves inside large-scale downward field-aligned currents and numerical simulations have associated their formation with self-consistent magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling.…
Coronal flare emission is commonly observed to decay on timescales longer than those predicted by impulsively-driven, one-dimensional flare loop models. This discrepancy is most apparent during the gradual phase, where emission from these…
Alfv\'en waves are a particular class of magnetohydrodynamic waves relevant in many astrophysical and laboratory plasmas. In partially ionized plasmas the dynamics of Alfv\'en waves is affected by the interaction between ionized and neutral…
In the solar atmosphere, Alfv\'en waves are believed to play an important role in the transfer of energy from the photosphere to the corona and solar wind, and in the heating of the chromosphere. We perform numerical computations to…
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…
The propagation of shear Alfven wave packets in inhomogeneous magnetic fields, at the origin of their distortion, regardless of the occurrence of non-linear coupling, is considered. It is shown that the distortion mechanism can be regarded…
Context. Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves are ubiquitous in the solar atmosphere. In magnetic waveguides resonant absorption due to plasma inhomogeneity naturally transfers wave energy from large-scale motions to small-scale motions. In the…
We investigate numerically Alfv\'en waves propagating along an axisymmetric and non-isothermal solar flux tube embedded in the solar atmosphere. The tube magnetic field is current-free and diverges with height, and the waves are excited by…
An experimental investigation of nonlinear interactions between shear Alfv\'{e}n waves in a laboratory plasma is presented. Two Alfv\'{e}n waves, generated by a resonant cavity, are observed to beat together, driving a low frequency…
We present a model of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in the extended solar corona that contains the effects of collisionless dissipation and anisotropic particle heating. Measurements made by UVCS/SOHO have revived interest in the…
