Energy transport to the solar corona by magnetic kink waves

Choudhuri, A. R; Dikpati, M; Banerjee, D (American Astronomical Society, 1993-08-20)

We show that the magnetic kink waves generated by the motions of photospheric footpoints of the coronal flux tubes can supply adequate energy for heating the quiet corona, provided there are occasional rapid motions of ...
Magnetoatmospheric oscillations in sunspot umbrae

Hasan, S. S (The American Astronomical Society, 1990-01)

The nature of umbral oscillations is investigated using an empirical model for the sunspot umbra, based on the model of Maltby et al. (1986). Approximating the sunspot as a thick flux tube of circular cross section, the ...
Solar wind flow associated with stream-free sector boundaries at 1 AU

Sastri, J. H (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1987-09)

The correlations between the plasma characteristics of the solar wind flow in the vicinity (± 12 hr) of stream-free sector boundaries near Earth are examined using the composite data base of interplanetary plasma for the ...
Tidal transfer of energy and angular momentum to spheroidal galaxies

Som Sunder, G; Kochhar, R. K; Alladin, S. M (Royal Astronomical Society, 1990-06)

The tidal transfer of energy and angular momentum to a spheriodal test galaxy is studied using tensor virial equations within the framework of impulse approximation. The tidally introduced angular momentum is always along ...
