Polarization properties of standing shear Alfvén waves in non-axisymmetric background magnetic fields
In this paper we present results concerning periods and polarizations of cold plasma ultra-low frequency (ULF) guided Alfvén waves in a non-axisymmetric geomagnetic field. The background geomagnetic field is approximated by a compressed dipole for which we propose a simple description in terms...
