MHD mode conversion in a stratified atmosphere
Mode conversion in the region where the sound and Alfvén speeds are equal is a complex process, which has been studied both analytically and numerically, and has been seen in observations. In order to further the understanding of this process we set up a simple, onedimensional model, and examine wave propagation through this system using a combination of analytical and numerical techniques. Sim...
متن کاملA New Look at Mode Conversion in a Stratified Isothermal Atmosphere
Recent numerical investigations of wave propagation near coronal magnetic null points (McLaughlin and Hood, 2006) have indicated how a fast MHD wave partially converts into a slow MHD wave as the disturbance passes from a low-β plasma to a high-β plasma. This is a complex process and a clear understanding of the conversion mechanism requires the detailed investigation of a simpler model. An inv...
متن کاملTurbulent f-mode in a stratified solar atmosphere
The solar f-mode is a surface gravity wave which high horizontal wavenumber k and the frequency ω satisfy the dispersion relation ω2 = gk, where g is the surface gravity of the Sun. However, the observations of this mode revealed deviations from this simple dispersion relation. According to these observations for high values of k the f-mode frequency is significantly lower than the frequency gi...
متن کاملMHD Mode Conversion around a 2D Magnetic Null Point
Mode conversion occurs when a wave passes through a region where the sound and Alfvén speeds are equal. At this point there is a resonance, which allows some of the incident wave to be converted into a different mode. We study this phenomenon in the vicinity of a twodimensional, coronal null point. As a wave approaches the null it passes from lowto high-β plasma, allowing conversion to take pla...
متن کاملMHD eigenmodes in a semi-infinite structured solar atmosphere
Linear eigenmodes are determined for the solar atmosphere in the presence of a gravitational field and a magnetic field. The atmosphere consists of a horizontal nonuniform chromosphere and a semi-infinite nonuniform corona. It is bounded from below by a heavy and immovable photosphere. Inhomogeneity is confined to the vertical direction. The gravitational acceleration is constant and the equili...
