| 内容記述 | Alfven wave propagation in a spherically symmetric isothermal and stratified stellar atmosphere are analzyed using a time-dependent MHD numerical model. Particular consideration is given to wave reflection and the resultant trapping of the wave due to a peak in the Alfven speed in the atmosphere. Resonance frequencies in the trapping region and the effect of trapping on Alfven wave pressure force and propagation are examined. The data reveal that Alfven wave trapping has a potentially important role in accelerating winds from cool stars. |
