On a source of Alfvén waves heating the solar corona
Studies of the origin of coronal heating and acceleration of the solar wind invoke high-frequency Alfvén waves. Here we suggest a source for such waves associated with twisted magnetic loops emerging on the solar surface and reconnecting with the open field. We identify the loops with the ephemeral regions (small-scale bipoles) observed by ground-based instruments and by SOHO. To characterize t...
متن کاملThe Rotation of Hydromagnetic Waves by the Ionosphere
We show that the Doppler shift on whistler mode signals from VLF transmitters may be used to infer the magnetic field of an hydromagnetic wave above the ionosphere in the magnetosphere. This inferred field can then be compared with that measured on the ground. We examine one event in detail and show the data imply that a it/2 rotation of the orientation of the wave ellipse has occurred between ...
متن کاملHYDROMAGNETIC MODEL FOR THE SOLAR GENERAL CIRCULATION by
Observations of phenomena on the surface of the sun of widely varying time and space scales are reviewed. Some of the physical and mathematical models for the larger, more slowly changing solar features, namely the solar cycle, large scale magnetic regions, and the differential rotation, are also surveyed. Motivated by Ward's sunspot displacement statistics, and Bumba and Howard's synoptic char...
متن کاملThe Structure of Hydromagnetic Shock Waves
Es werden Wellen in einem quasi-neutralen Gas untersucht, das Ionen und Elektronen enthält und genügend kalt ist, so daß die thermischen Bewegungen vernachlässigt werden können. Außerdem werden Zusammenstöße zwischen den Teilchen vernachlässigt, jedoch nicht die Trägheitseffekte des elektrischen Stromes. Die nicht-linearen Gleichungen für unendlich ausgedehnte, ebene Kompressionswellen, die sic...
متن کاملThe universally growing mode in the solar atmosphere: coronal heating by drift waves
The heating of the plasma in the solar atmosphere is discussed within both frameworks of fluid and kinetic drift wave theory. We show that the basic ingredient necessary for the heating is the presence of density gradients in the direction perpendicular to the magnetic field vector. Such density gradients are a source of free energy for the excitation of drift waves. We use only well establishe...
