Scientific paper

Nonlinear phenomena consisting in generation of plasma flows and currents in structured magnetic fields are described. There are two main effects leading to these phenomena. First, it takes place due to the action of ponderomotive force on plasma, and second due to the absorption of the momentum and angular momentum of oscillations propagating along the magnetic flux tubes. If the absorption is provided mostly with one of the plasma components, then besides the generation of quite strong convective motions, it is accompanied by the excitation of currents which can distort the initial magnetic fields and their equilibrium conditions.
