Session ID#: 15778

Session Description:
Space and ground based observations have detected a variety of low-frequency plasma waves, oscillations, and instabilities (e.g., Alfven waves, Fast/Slow/EUV waves, global-kink-mode, and sausage-mode) in solar and heliospheric magnetoplasma structures that exist across a wide range of spatio-temporal scales (e.g., small flux- ropes in the surface-granulation-pattern, spicules, prominences, coronal loops). Laboratory plasma experiments have made important contributions in developing models that can accurately predict propagation, damping, and growth-rate of plasma waves and instabilities. Development of similar models for solar plasma structures can help us fully utilize diagnostic capabilities of these waves and understand their role in energy transport on the Sun. This session provides a platform to bring together experts in remote observational analysis, numerical/analytical modeling, and experimental/theoretical plasma physics. We especially welcome contributions based on recent (SDO, Hinode, IRIS, WIND, ACE, Helios, Cluster, and MMS) and planning for next generation observational facilities (DKIST, EST, COSMO, Solar-Orbiter, and Solar-Probe plus).
