Transverse hydromagnetic waves (Alfven waves) were generated in a plasma of ionized air in a linear glass tube with weak magnetic fields, and their phase velocity and attenuation were measured. The velocity and amplitude of the waves are plotted vs. the axial magnetic field, gas pressure, and pre-ionization currents. (D. L.C.)
