Abstract
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) oscillations are observed in the solar photosphere with the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI). The absorption of acoustic waves by sunspots (Braun et al., 1988) and the possible conversion of acoustic waves into MHD waves (Spruit et al., 1992) provide a plausible basis for the existence of MHD waves in the solar atmosphere and motivate this attempt at observation.
