DESCRIPTION: The coupling of fast and Alfven magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) wave
 s is of fundamental interest in astrophysical plasmas. Under certain condi
 tions\, Alfven waves can be resonantly excited by fast mode waves\, result
 ing in a localised accumulation of energy in the plasma. In the solar comm
 unity this is often referred to as resonant absorption\, while in the magn
 etospheric community it's known as field line resonance. These processes h
 ave applications in coronal heating and in magnetospheric dynamics.Alfven 
 resonances are well understood in 1D and 2D\, but not so in 3D\, particula
 rly in non-Cartesian geometries. We present a theoretical way of understan
 ding the structure and temporal development of Alfven resonances in 3D\, w
 hich is corroborated by numerical simulations.\nSpeaker: Thomas Elsden
