چکیده

M dwarf's atmosphere is expected to be highly magnetized. The magnetic energy can responsible for heating the stellar chromosphere and corona, driving wind. nonlinear propagation of Alfv\'en wave promising mechanism both Based on this scenario, we carried out one-dimensional compressive magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation reproduce atmospheres winds TRAPPIST-1, Proxima Centauri, YZ CMi, AD Leo, AX Mic, as well Sun. from photosphere chromosphere, interplanetary space directly resolved in our study. result particularly shows that slow shock generated through mode coupling crucially involved dynamics (stellar spicule) wind acceleration. Our parameter survey further revealed following general trends physical quantities (1) dwarfs' coronae tend cooler denser than solar corona. (2) characterized with relatively faster velocity much smaller mass-loss rate compared those mechanisms behind these tendencies are clarified paper, where stronger stratification input remarkable.

Nonlinear decay of phase - mixed Alfvén waves in the solar corona

This paper presents an analytical investigation of the nonlinear interaction of phase-mixed Alfvén waves in the framework of two-fluid magnetohydrodynamics. It focuses on the parametric decay of the phase-mixed pump Alfvén wave into two daughter Alfvén waves. This parametric decay is a nonlinear phenomenon which does not occur in ideal MHD since it is induced by the combined action of finite wa...

Origin of long - period Alfvén waves in the solar wind

We suggest that the observed long-period Alfvén waves in the solar wind may be generated in the solar interior due to the pulsation of the Sun in the fundamental radial mode. The period of this pulsation is about 1 hour. The pulsation causes a periodical variation of density and large-scale magnetic field, this affecting the Alfvén speed in the solar interior. Consequently the Alfvén waves with...

Non-WKB Models of the FIP Effect: Implications for Solar Coronal Heating and the Coronal Helium and Neon Abundances

We revisit in more detail a model for element abundance fractionation in the solar chromosphere, that gives rise to the “FIP Effect” in the solar corona and wind. Elements with first ionization potential below about 10 eV, i.e. those that are predominantly ionized in the chromosphere, are enriched in the corona by a factor 3-4. We model the propagation of Alfvén waves through the chromosphere u...

Laboratory observation of a nonlinear interaction between shear Alfvén waves.

An experimental investigation of nonlinear interactions between shear Alfvén waves in a laboratory plasma is presented. Two Alfvén waves, generated by a resonant cavity, are observed to beat together, driving a pseudomode at the beat frequency. The pseudomode then scatters the Alfvén waves, generating a series of sidebands. The observed interaction is very strong, with the normalized amplitude ...

The Heating of the Solar Chromosphere and Corona by Non-stationary Acoustic Waves

The heating of the solar chromosphere and corona is a fundamental problem that still deserves further investigation. Recent improvement of the theory of acoustic wave propagation in the solar atmosphere including non-stationary solutions, carried out by Wang et al. (1994), raises the possibility for a rediscussion about the role of these waves as a heating mechanism. The main result of this the...
