Abstract: | The dissipation of ducted, fast magnetoacoustic waves by ion viscosity, electron heat conduction and radiation is re-considered
and the results show that these waves are not readily dissipated in the solar corona. It seems unlikely, therefore, that they
will play a role in the heating of the solar atmosphere. |
