Abstract
We numerically investigated the non-linear response of the solar atmosphere to 5-min oscillations, assuming that atmospheric motions are restricted to flow along magnetic field lines. It was found that 5-min oscillations can generate shock waves along magnetic field lines with inclination angles of about 50 degrees from vertical in the chromosphere. It is suggested that coronal activities driven by the shock waves might be observable with the Soft X-ray Telescope on board Solar-A.
