Scientific paper

Using one- and two-dimensional MHD codes of Total Variation Diminishing (TVD) scheme, we perform simulations of propagation of nonlinear magnetosonic waves. Magnetosonic wave is a longitudinal wave propagating perpendicularly to the magnetic field lines, and involves compression and rarefaction of the magnetic field lines and the plasma. We first confirm the theoretical solution of Lee and Kim (2000) for the evolution of nonlinear magnetosonic waves in the homogeneous space. We then extend our numerical studies to one-dimensional inhomogeneous space and two-dimensional homogeneous space.
