Scientific paper

According to observations, the MHD perturbations in coronal loops carry enough energy density to fuel the loops. The damping mechanisms for tapping this energy source are examined, and wave-particle interactions are proposed as a hopeful candidate. Results of analyses of the magnetosonic surface wave and the kinetic Alfven wave show that the wave-particle resonant interactions can dissipate energy fast enough to sustain the coronal temperatures.
