Umbilic Lines in Orientational Order

Ordered materials such as Bose condensates, and liquid crystals display complex three-dimensional structures. Research by Thomas Machon and Gareth Alexander provides new insights into their behaviour.

The damping profile of standing kink modes in coronal loops

Oscillations of solar coronal loops are observed to be strongly damped. This can be explained by mode coupling, which coverts the wave energy from bulk transverse motions to localised, unresolved azimuthal motions. Using the highest quality data currently available, we have found evidence for the Gaussian damping profile predicted by the recently developed theory of damping by mode coupling.
