Abstract
To heat the solar atmosphere by waves one requires some efficient dissipation mechanisms. Resonant absorption, suggested by Ionson (1978), might be a candidate to explain the heating mechanism (s) in the solar corona. In the former studies of resonant absorption one has mostly assumed static equilibria. However, Hollweg et al. (1990) showed that resonant absorption can be severely influenced by the presence of velocity shears. Erdélyi et al. (1995) studied analytically the resonant absorption in linear compressible MHD for background equilibrium states with flow.
