We used our newly developed magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) code to perform 2.5D simulations of a fast-mode MHD wave interacting with coronal holes (CH) of varying Alfven speed which result from assuming different CH densities. We find that this interaction leads to effects like reflection, transmission, stationary fronts at the CH boundary and the formation of a density depletion that moves in the opposite direction to the incoming wave. We compare these effects with regard to the different CH densities and present a comprehensive analysis of morphology and kinematics of the associated secondary waves. We find that the density value inside the CH influences the phase speed as well as the amplitude values of density and magnetic field for all different secondary waves. Moreover, we observe a correlation between the CH density and the peak values of the stationary fronts at the CH boundary. The findings of reflection and transmission on the one hand and the formation of stationary fronts caused by the interaction of MHD waves with CHs on the other hand, strongly support the theory that large scale disturbances in the corona are fast-mode MHD waves.
We developed a new numerical code that is able to perform 2.5D simulations of a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) wave propagation in the corona, and its interaction with a low density region, such as a coronal hole (CH). We show that the impact of the wave
We performed 2.5D magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations showing the propagation of fast-mode MHD waves of different initial amplitudes and their interaction with a coronal hole (CH), using our newly developed numerical code. We find that this interac
Parameters of magnetic flux distribution inside low-latitude coronal holes (CHs) were analyzed. A statistical study of 44 CHs based on Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO)/MDI full disk magnetograms and SOHO/EIT 284AA images showed that the dens
The solar atmosphere may be heated by Alfven waves that propagate up from the convection zone and dissipate their energy in the chromosphere and corona. To further test this theory, we consider wave heating in an active region observed on 2012 March
Small-scale ephemeral coronal holes may be a recurring feature on the solar disk, but have received comparatively little attention. These events are characterized by compact structure and short total lifetimes, substantially less than a solar disk cr
