Numerical simulations of conversion to Alfvén waves in solar active regions
We study the coupling of magneto-acoustic waves to Alvén waves using 2.5D numerical simulations. In our experiment, a fast magnetoacoustic wave of a given frequency and wavenumber is generated below the surface. The magnetic field in the domain is assumed homogeneous and inclined. The efficiency of the conversion to Alfvén waves near the layer of
