Anomalous Heating of the Upper Layers of the Solar Chromosphere by Slow Magnetohydrodynamic Shock Waves
摘要
Abstract
This paper investigates the features of the generation of fast and slow MHD shock waves in the lower layers of the solar corona. An analytical solution is obtained at the shock front for both types of shock waves and it is shown that the primary role in the formation of anomalous heating belongs to weak MHD shock waves, which do not have a lower speed limit for generation in the upper layers of the solar chromosphere.
