Extended Data Fig. 4: Results from Monte Carlo simulations assessing the impact of line-of-sight integration on the measurement of wave amplitudes.

From: Evidence for small-scale torsional Alfvén waves in the solar corona

Extended Data Fig. 4

The horizontal axis shows the mean wave amplitude (values drawn from a log-Normal distribution) that represents the true wave amplitudes. The vertical axis is the root mean square Doppler velocity measured after integration along the line-of-sight. The blue squares correspond to the values for torsional Alfvén waves, and the pink diamonds are for the kink mode.
