Driven phase-mixed Alfvén waves in a partially ionized solar plasma
Max McMurdo, Istvan Ballai, Gary Verth +1
Phase mixing has long been understood to be a viable mechanism for expediting the dissipation of Alfvén wave energy resulting in the subsequent heating of the solar atmosphere. To…

Phase mixing of propagating Alfv{é}n waves in a single-fluid partially ionized solar plasma
Max McMurdo, Istvan Ballai, Gary Verth +2
Phase mixing of Alfven waves is one of the most promising mechanisms for heating of the solar atmosphere. The damping of waves in this case requires small transversal scales, relat…
