It is widely known that hot plasma is ubiquitous in various astrophysical objects from stars to galaxy clusters. I have worked on the wave dissipation which play a role in the momentum and energy transfer in the plasma. In this article, I firstly introduce our results on the wave heating and acceleration in the solar corona. I show that two kinds of the solar winds, the high-speed wind and low-speed wind, can be explained by the dissipation of different types of the waves. Then, we apply the wave dissipation to the heating in galaxy clusters in collaboration with Yutaka Fujita and Keiichi Wada (NAOJ). We show that the wave heating could be an effective process in reducing the cooling flow.
