Nonlinear Damping of Fast Waves and Plasma Heating in the Solar Corona
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 May 2016
Abstract
A nonlinear mechanism for the damping of fast magnetoacoustic wave in the solar corona is studied. It is shown that the nonlinear coupling of finite-amplitude fast waves to small-scale Alfven waves can be much faster than damping mechanisms involving classic transport coefficients.
