Joint action of phase mixing and nonlinear effects in mhd waves propagating in coronal loops

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The authors investigate the interplay of phase mixing and the nonlinear turbulent cascade in the evolution and dissipation of Alfvén waves using compressible magnetohydrodynamic numerical simulations. The aim is to study how phase mixing and nonlinear couplings jointly work to produce small scales in different regimes. An overview of the model is presented in Sect 2; the authors report some relevant scaling laws in Sect 2.1 and the physical model the authors describe in Sects. In Sect 3 the authors report the numerical results.
• Who: Meringolo C. and collaborators from the Dipartimento . . .
