Poynting flux of MHD modes in magnetic solar vortex tubes

Samuel Skirvin, Viktor Fedun, Marcel Goossens +2

Magnetic flux tubes in the presence of background rotational flows, known as solar vortex tubes, are abundant throughout the solar atmosphere and may act as conduits for MHD waves…

The effect of linear background rotational flows on magnetoacoustic modes of a photospheric magnetic flux tube

Samuel Skirvin, Viktor Fedun, Suzana Silva +4

Magnetoacoustic waves in solar magnetic flux tubes may be affected by the presence of background rotational flows. Here, we investigate the behaviour of and modes o…

Reconstruction of photospheric velocity fields from highly corrupted data

Erico L. Rempel, Roman Chertovskih, Kamilla R. Davletshina +3

The analysis of the photospheric velocity field is essential for understanding plasma turbulence in the solar surface, which may be responsible for driving processes such as magnet…

Small-scale solar jet formation and their associated waves and instabilities

Samuel Skirvin, Gary Verth, José Juan González-Avilés +7

Studies on small-scale jets' formation, propagation, evolution, and role, such as type I and II spicules, mottles, and fibrils in the lower solar atmosphere's energetic balance, ha…

The importance of horizontal Poynting flux in the solar photosphere

Suzana S. A. Silva, Mariarita Murabito, Shahin Jafarzadeh +4

The electromagnetic energy flux in the lower atmosphere of the Sun is a key tool to describe the energy balance of the solar atmosphere. Current investigations on energy flux in th…

New approach for analysing dynamical processes on the surface of photospheric vortex tubes

Yasir Aljohani, Viktor Fedun, Istvan Ballai +3

The majority of studies on multi-scale vortex motions employ a two-dimensional geometry by using a variety of observational and numerical data. This approach limits the understandi…

II. The effect of axisymmetric and spatially varying equilibria and flow on MHD wave modes: Cylindrical geometry

Samuel Skirvin, Viktor Fedun, Suzana Silva +1

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves are routinely observed in the solar atmosphere. These waves are important in the context of solar physics as it is widely believed they can contribu…
