Absolute value of the velocity, |υz|, associated with the Alfvén waves along the line y = x at different times. The line y = x is perpendicular to the field lines and this shows the variation in υz across the field lines. The figure shows that the length scale across the field lines is shortened as time progresses and so phase mixing is occurring.
