چکیده

We study the phase mixing and dissipation of a packet of standing shear Alfvén waves localized in
a region with non-uniform Alfvén background velocity.We investigate the validity of the exponential damping
law in time, exp(−At3), presented by Heyvaerts & Priest (1983) for different ranges of Lundquist, S, and
Reynolds, R, numbers. Our numerical results shows that it is valid for (R, S) ≥ 107.
