TLDR
In this article, the authors investigated the nature of oscillations in a magnetic cylinder embedded in magnetic environment and showed that the standard slender flux tube analysis of a kink mode in a cylinder excludes the possibility of a second mode, which arises under photospheric conditions.
Abstract
The nature of oscillations in a magnetic cylinder embedded in a magnetic environment is investigated. It is shown that the standard slender flux tube analysis of a kink mode in a cylinder excludes the possibility of a second mode, which arises under photospheric conditions. Under coronal conditions, two widely separated classes of oscillation can be freely sustained, one on an acoustic time-scale and the other on an Alfvenic time-scale. The acoustic-type oscillations are always present, but the much shorter period, Alfvenic-type, oscillations arise only in high density (strictly, low Alfven velocity) loops. An application to waves in fibrils is also given, and suggests (following Wentzel, 1979) that they are fast kink waves propagating in a density enhancement.

Estimation of spicule magnetic field using observed mhd waves by the hinode sot

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the high resolution Ca II H line (3968.5 ˚A) images observed by the Hinode SOT and considered a vertical thin flux tube as a spicule model.

Coronal EUV, QFP, and kink waves simultaneously launched during the course of jet-loop interaction

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the observations of an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) wave, a quasi-periodic fast-propagating (QFP) magnetosonic wave, and a kink wave that were simultaneously associated with the impingement of a coronal jet upon a group of coronal loops.

Coronal loop oscillations: energy considerations and initial value problem

TL;DR: In this article, the amplitude and energy of the magnetic tube for different kinds of initial excitations have been studied and it was shown that fluting modes have quite small energies in comparison with the kink mode (around three orders of magnitude for the first fluting mode).

Wave propagation in a magnetically structured atmosphere: III: The slab in a magnetic environment

P.M. Edwin, +1 more
- 01 Mar 1982 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the propagation of waves in a magnetic slab embedded in magnetic environment is investigated and possible modes of propagation are examined from the general dispersion relation, both analytically and numerically, for disturbances which are evanescent in the environment.
