摘要:

最近的研究表明,磁扭曲和轴对称磁流体模在太阳大气中普遍存在,因此,研究这些模的共振吸收对太阳大气中磁通量管的加热和观测到的阻尼具有重要意义,已成为一个紧迫的问题。本文首次计算了弱扭转磁通量管内轴对称磁流体动力学波的阻尼率。我们的目的是调查这些模式的太阳大气条件下的共振阻尼的影响。本文的分析研究是基于一个理想化的配置直磁通量管与弱磁扭曲的内部以及外部的管。利用\cite{Sakurai:1991aa}导出的守恒律和最近由\cite{Giagkiozis:2015apj}得到的弱扭曲通量管的解析解,我们导出了Alfvén连续谱中共振阻尼轴对称模的色散关系.我们还得到了一个有见地的解析表达式的阻尼率在长波长的限制。此外,它表明,纵向磁场和密度,这是允许连续变化的非均匀层,对阻尼时间有显着的影响。考虑到太阳大气的条件,共振阻尼轴对称模式很可能是普遍存在的,并在能量耗散中发挥重要作用。我们还认为,鉴于这些波的性质,它们很可能已经以阿尔文波的形式被观察到。

英文摘要:

It has been shown recently that magnetic twist and axisymmetric MHD modes are ubiquitous in the solar atmosphere and therefore, the study of resonant absorption for these modes have become a pressing issue as it can have important consequences for heating magnetic flux tubes in the solar atmosphere and the observed damping. In this investigation, for the first time, we calculate the damping rate for axisymmetric MHD waves in weakly twisted magnetic flux tubes. Our aim is to investigate the impact of resonant damping of these modes for solar atmospheric conditions. This analytical study is based on an idealized configuration of a straight magnetic flux tube with a weak magnetic twist inside as well as outside the tube. By implementing the conservation laws derived by \cite{Sakurai:1991aa} and the analytic solutions for weakly twisted flux tubes obtained recently by \cite{Giagkiozis:2015apj}, we derive a dispersion relation for resonantly damped axisymmetric modes in the spectrum of the Alfvén continuum. We also obtain an insightful analytical expression for the damping rate in the long wavelength limit. Furthermore, it shown that both the longitudinal magnetic field and the density, which are allowed to vary continuously in the inhomogeneous layer, have a significant impact on the damping time. Given the conditions in the solar atmosphere, resonantly damped axisymmetric modes are highly likely to be ubiquitous and play an important role in energy dissipation. We also suggest that given the character of these waves, it is likely that they have already been observed in the guise of Alfvén waves.
