Damping Scenarios of Kink Oscillations of Solar Coronal Loops

The transition from the large-amplitude rapidly-decaying regime of kink oscillations plasma loops observed in corona Sun to low-amplitude decayless is modelled. In this study, associated with energy supply coronal flows, i.e., self-oscillations, or random movements footpoints oscillating loop. damping attributed linear effect resonant absorption. We demonstrate that decay an impulsively excited oscillation self-oscillatory stationary amplitude differs exponential decay. time found depend on power a negative constant whose magnitude less than unity. scenario, better model for seems be super-exponential. separately considered case oscillatory supported by driver, experiences level. Implications finding magnetohydrodynamic seismology solar based absorption are discussed.
