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…
Observations show that waves are ubiquitous in the solar atmosphere and may play an important role for plasma heating. The study of waves in the solar corona is usually based on linear ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) for a fully ionized…
This paper is a demonstration of how the WKB approximation can be used to help solve the linearised 3D MHD equations. Using Charpit's Method and a Runge-Kutta numerical scheme, we have demonstrated this technique for a potential 3D magnetic…
We conduct a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of the parametric decay instability of Alfv\'en waves and resultant compressible MHD turbulence, which is likely to develop in the solar wind acceleration region. Because…
The nonlinear three-wave interaction process at the heart of the parametric decay process is studied by launching counter-propagating Alfv\'en waves from antennas placed at either end of the Large Plasma Device (LAPD). A resonance in the…
The propagation and the evolution of Alfvenic pulses in the solar coronal arcades is investigated by means of MHD numerical simulations. Significant transverse oscillations in coronal loops, triggered by nearby flare events, are often…
We present results from a kinetic model of collisionless gyrotropic coronal hole protons heated by cyclotron and Landau resonant dissipation of critically balanced kinetic Alfv\'en waves. The model incorporates the kinetic effects of…
The recently suggested swing interaction between fast magnetosonic and Alfv\'en waves (2002) is generalized to inhomogeneous media. We show that the fast magnetosonic waves propagating across an applied non-uniform magnetic field can…
The interactions of gravitational waves with interstellar matter, dealing with resonant wave-particle and wave-wave interactions, are considered on the basis of magnetic-type Maxwell-Vlasov equations. It is found that the behavior of the…
We investigate dispersive and kinetic effects on the evolution of a two-dimensional kinked Alfv\'en wave packet by comparing results from MHD, Hall-MHD and hybrid simulations of a low-$\beta$ plasma. We find that the Hall term determines…
Turbulence in the magnetized plasma is well understood to be the consequence of wave interactions. When the Hall effect is added to the minimum magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), the MHD waves become dispersive and different nonlinear interactions…
We perform magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations to investigate the propagation of Alfven wave in magnetic chromosphere. We use the 1.5-dimensional expanding flux tube geometry setting and transverse perturbation at the bottom to generate…
When magnetic energy density is much larger than that of matter, as in pulsar/black hole magnetospheres, the medium becomes force-free and we need relativity to describe it. As in non-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), Alfv\'enic MHD…
The role of magnetic helicity is investigated in kinetic Alfv\'en wave and oblique whistler turbulence in presence of a relatively intense external magnetic field $b_0 {\bf e_\parallel}$. In this situation, turbulence is strongly…
We compare, in an extensive and systematic way, linear theory results obtained with the hybrid (ion-kinetic and electron-fluid), the gyrokinetic and the fully-kinetic plasma models. We present a test case with parameters that are relevant…
Static distributions of temperature and wind velocity at the transition region are calculated within the framework of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) of completely ionized hydrogen plasma. The numerical solution of the derived equations gives…
Ion sound waves are studied in a plasma subject to gravitational field. Such systems are interesting by exhibiting a wave growth that is a result of energy flux conservation in inhomogeneous systems. The increasing wave amplitude gives rise…
There is ample evidence of twisted magnetic structures in the solar corona. This motivates us to consider the magnetic twist as the cause of Alfven frequency continuum in the coronal loops, which can support the resonant absorption as a…
In this paper we further develop a model for the heating of coronal loops by Alfven wave turbulence (AWT). The Alfven waves are assumed to be launched from a collection of kilogauss flux tubes in the photosphere at the two ends of the loop.…
Aims. We investigate the transfer of energy between a standing kink mode and azimuthal Alfven waves within an expanding flux tube. We consider the process of resonant absorption in a loop with a non-uniform Alfven frequency profile but in…
