Scientific paper

The propagation of magnetosonic waves localized within a sheet of magnetized plasma is studied, with the anisotropy of plasma kinetic pressure in the magnetic field taken into account. Dispersion dependences of wave phase velocities on the ratio of the sheet size to the wavelength are derived for various plasma parameters within and outside the sheet. The thresholds of the appearance of mirror and hose instabilities are investigated. The ranges of the parameters of the system under consideration for which anisotropy must be taken into account are indicated. Changes due to anisotropy are estimated for various magnetic structures in the solar atmosphere.
