Scientific paper

Based on a plane-parallel isothermal model solar atmosphere stratified in the field of gravity, we investigate the main patterns of vertical propagation of magnetoacoustic gravity waves (MAGWs) in the approximation of a horizontal potential magnetic field. We have established that the cutoff frequency for MAGWs below which they cannot propagate does not depend on the magnetic field strength and is equal to that for acoustic gravity waves, the Lamb frequency. The cutoff frequency is shown to be unaffected by the linear interaction between counterpropagating MAGWs that results from a nonuniform height distribution of the Alfvén velocity and that causes the reflection of propagating waves at relatively large heights.
