Abstract: Using numerical simulation, the influence of parameters of a magnetised background plasma on the intensity of quasi-stationary Alfvén and slow magnetosonic waves produced by periodic bunches of a laser plasma in a magnetic field tube is investigated. It is shown that in a weak magnetic field, the waves propagate together, carrying a flow of rotating plasma, and in a strong field, the bunches form simultaneously two types of waves propagating with different velocities.

Keywords: shock-wave merging, laser plasma bunches, Alfvén torsional wave, slow magnetosonic wave, numerical simulation.
