Abstract
The properties of the resonator are considered for fast magnetoacoustic waves. It is shown that tunnel penetration of waves from the resonator leads either to heating of the medium in the Alfvén resonance vicinity (if the inclination angle of the magnetic field is smaller than the critical angle), or to excitation of Alfvén waves at the Alfvén resonance (if the inclination angle is larger than the critical angle). This suggests that non-radiative heating of the corona can be due to solar p-mode oscillations.
