Abstract

A special Hopf bifurcation in resistive magnetohydrodynamics can easily be identified by starting from a particularly suitable form of the linearized equations which was previously introduced by the author. As usual, the bifurcation can lead to nonlinear periodic oscillations. These oscillations can eventually be destroyed, which raises the question of the nature of the ultimate attractors.
