Abstract
Resistive normal-mode solutions of the MHD equations are found numerically in a smooth, non-uniform, magnetic field. The (α, S) boundary within which normal-mode solutions exist is explicitly computed, where α is the normalized wavenumber and Sthe Lundquist number. As an extension of our previous analytic results (Mok & Einaudi 1985), the damping rate of these modes is computed to a higher accuracy, and is found to have an a + bS−1/3 dependence, where a and b are independent of S.
