Abstract (from CDS):

From 06:15 UT to 08:15 UT on 2011 June 2, a toroidal filament located at the joint of two active regions, 11226 and 11227, appeared to perform two eruptions. During this phenomenon, fast and slow magnetoacoustic waves were detected to propagate simultaneously along a funnel coronal loop system of AR 11227. We aim to understand the relationship between fast and slow magnetoacoustic waves during their propagations and measure their properties, such as the propagating speed, path, amplitude, and period observed in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) wavebands. We analyse time sequences of EUV images acquired by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory. By creating time-distance maps along selected directions, we measure the speeds and localisation of EUV intensity waves in different EUV wavebands. We determine the periods of the waves with wavelet analysis. The fast and slow magnetoacoustic waves, apparently propagating along the same path, are found to have different properties. Their apparent propagation speeds, travel distances, and periods are about 900km/s and 100km/s, 145Mm and 36Mm, and 2-min and 3-min, respectively.
