✦ Synopsis


The absorption of solar five-rain oscillations by sunspots is interpreted as the resonant absorption of sound waves by a magnetic cylinder. The absorption coefficient is calculated both analytically under certain simplifying assumptions, and numerically under more general conditions. The observed magnitude of the absorption coefficient, which is up to 0.5 or even more, can be explained for suitable ranges of parameters. Limitations in the present model are also discussed.

A basic procedure is presented for dealing with the resonance problems that appear in MHD of which resonant absorption of waves at the Alfv~n resonance point is the best known example in solar physics. The procedure avoids solving the full fourth-order differential equation of dissipative MHD by usi

Greenwich data for proper motions of the components of sunspot groups are analysed. We have found that only 4}'0 of the 408 examined sunspot groups do not show systematic proper motions of the components at the beginning of their life. Interpreting proper motions as the results of ascending subphoto

Propagation speeds are derived for the wave modes of a thin magnetic tube in an otherwise homogeneous magnetized or unmagnetized fluid. These results generalize results obtained by previous authors. There are three types of wave, a (torsional) Alfv6n wave and two waves which are specific for the thi

The formation of shocks and shock heating by radiatively damped longitudinal waves in solar magnetic flux tubes of different filling factors is studied. We consider three flux tubes of filling factors: 1%, 20%, and exponentially spreading which represent normal, enhanced network regions and the inte
