Description
We present first results of our study to characterize the
dynamics of Alfvén waves in the solar corona. Using MHD
simulations, we study the propagation of
monochromatic Alfvén waves injected at the base of
the corona and quantify their characteristics higher up in
the corona. In particular, we investigate how different flux tube
geometries affect the properties of the waves.
