Scientific paper

The theory of magnetohydrodynamic waves in a magnetically structured atmosphere is reviewed. Continuously and discretely structured media are considered, with applications to coronal loops, open field regions, sunspots, and H alpha fibrils. Analogies with other subjects (e.g., oceanography, fiber optics) are drawn. The propagation on an inpulsively generated fast magnetoacoustic wave in a density duct leads to periodicities of a second in the corona and tens of seconds in the chromosphere.
