Coronal waves and oscillations

VM Nakariakov, E Verwichte - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2005 - Springer
Wave and oscillatory activity of the solar corona is confidently observed with modern
imaging and spectral instruments in the visible light, EUV, X-ray and radio bands, and …

Multiwavelength studies of MHD waves in the solar chromosphere: An overview of recent results

DB Jess, RJ Morton, G Verth, V Fedun, SDT Grant… - Space Science …, 2015 - Springer
The chromosphere is a thin layer of the solar atmosphere that bridges the relatively cool
photosphere and the intensely heated transition region and corona. Compressible and …

Coronal transverse magnetohydrodynamic waves in a solar prominence

TJ Okamoto, S Tsuneta, TE Berger, K Ichimoto… - Science, 2007 - science.org
Solar prominences are cool 104 kelvin plasma clouds supported in the surrounding 106

Magnetohydrodynamic waves in open coronal structures

D Banerjee, S Krishna Prasad, V Pant… - Space Science …, 2021 - Springer
Modern observatories have revealed the ubiquitous presence of magnetohydrodynamic
waves in the solar corona. The propagating waves (in contrast to the standing waves) are …

Hot coronal loop oscillations observed by SUMER: slow magnetosonic wave damping by thermal conduction

L Ofman, T Wang - The Astrophysical Journal, 2002 - iopscience.iop.org

Longitudinal waves in coronal loops

I De Moortel - Space Science Reviews, 2009 - Springer
Outwardly propagating intensity disturbances are a common feature in large, quiescent
coronal loop structures. In this paper, an overview is given of the observed properties and …

How to channel photospheric oscillations into the corona

B De Pontieu, R Erdélyi, I De Moortel - The Astrophysical Journal, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org
There are now many observations of waves in the solar corona with periods around 5
minutes. The source of these waves is uncertain, although global p-modes in the …

Solar active regions: SOHO/CDS and TRACE observations of quiescent coronal loops
