Torsional Alfvén resonances as an efficient damping mechanism for non-radial oscillations in red giant stars
(Oxford University PressMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017-06-01)Stars are self-gravitating fluids in which pressure, buoyancy, rotation and magnetic fields provide the restoring forces for global modes of oscillation. Pressure and buoyancy energetically dominate, while rotation and ...
