Generation of Vertical Flows by Torsional Alfvén Pulses in Zero-beta Tubes with a Transitional Layer

Spicule activity in the chromosphere is modeled via the perturbation resulting from the propagation of an Alfvén wave pulse in a magnetic flux tube. Building on previous work, the model is augmented by the inclusion of a finite transitional layer in which the atmospheric density decreases exponentia...
