Schematic illustrating key elements of Alfvén wave-mediated SPMIs. The funnel-shaped isosurface represents an isocontour of the Poynting vector projected along the Alfvén characteristics. Magnetic field lines connect the planet to the star, enabling energy transfer from the planet to the star, with a portion reflected at the stellar transition region and the rest transmitted.
