Scientific paper

Under some laboratory and astrophysical conditions the magnetic flux in a plasma may be concentrated in narrow, mutually far-removed tubes ('magnetic filaments'). Long-wave sound vibrations of such systems are studied on the basis of the equations of magnetohydrodynamics. It is demonstrated that even in the absence of dissipative processes (viscosity, thermal conduction, ohmic losses) the sound vibrations are absorbed as a result of an effect which consists in resonance excitation of bending waves propagating along the magnetic filaments. Damping due to sound wave scattering on the filaments is examined. Damping of a low but finite amplitude monochromatic sound wave is considered.
