报告摘要:
Satellite and ground-based observations have provided a wealth of evidence of magnetic waves and oscillations present at a wide range of spatial and temporal scales in the atmosphere of our nearest star, the Sun. Our understanding about the Sun has recently been considerably changed in light of these observations.
First, we will briefly outline the current state-of-the-art in the mathematical theory of magnetic waves focusing on linear waves and explaining the so-called MHD spectrum.
Next, we will concentrate on the role of these waves in heating the solar atmosphere to the observed multi-millions of temperature. Some surprising results will be discussed, bringing us closer to solve the century-long coronal heating problem.
