“…Observations of standing kink oscillations have recently been used to calculate the density (and Alfvén speed) profiles for coronal loops using their damping profiles by resonant absorption (Pascoe et al 2013a(Pascoe et al , 2016(Pascoe et al , 2017a(Pascoe et al , 2017c. The perpendicular inhomogeneity size has also been independently estimated by forward modeling the EUV intensity (Goddard et al 2017;Pascoe et al 2017b), although so far this has relied on the isothermal approximation (e.g., Aschwanden et al 2007), whereas hot (multi-thermal) flaring loops may require more sophisticated forward modeling (e.g., De Moortel & Bradshaw 2008;Van Doorsselaere et al 2016a). Simultaneous observations of standing kink oscillations would therefore allow the density profile to be seismologically inferred, allowing a much narrower parametric study to determine the properties of the driver (e.g., A, x D ) required to reproduce the observed wave trains and/or radio bursts.…”
