Description

Waves and oscillations have been shown as a prime means of transporting energy through the solar atmosphere, thus, contributing to the high temperature of the upper layers. In particular, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves are observed in a number of structures in the solar chromosphere, often with observations in the near-ultraviolet (UV) to infrared wavelength range. In this poster, we present our recent work on identification of MHD wave modes in a number of fibrillar structures using high-temporal resolution (i.e., 2~s cadence) observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) in Band 6 (centred at 1.2~mm). Such oscillations are further compared with those identified in observations at near- and far-UV wavelengths (i.e., Mg ii k and C ii spectral lines) with the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) space telescope.
