These scans allowed for the examination of sup er-penumbral fibrils\, including their transverse motions both parallel an d perpendicular to the line of sight. Near ubiquitous transverse oscillati ons of the fibrils have been observed and statistics gathered on their pro perties\, which are consistent with previous investigations. Further exami nation of cases demonstrating well-resolved fibril oscillations were perfo rmed\, which allowed us to track their propagation velocities and associat ed energy flux along the length of the fibril. Additionally\, analysis of the H-alpha line width has been performed\, which is known to correlate wi th plasma temperature. This allowed for a unique investigation of whether the energy damped from the transverse fibril oscillations provides evidenc e of thermalisation of the local plasma. Here\, I will report on the energ y damping and associated fluctuations in the H-alpha line width\, which we believe is evidence of MHD wave dissipation in the form of plasma thermal isation.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/310/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/24/contributions/310/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
