The rapid damping of slow magnetoacoustic waves in the solar corona has beenextensively studied in previous years. Most studies suggest that thermalconduction is a dominant contributor to this damping, albeit with a fewexceptions. Employing extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) imaging data from SDO/AIA, wemeasure the damping lengths of propagating slow magnetoacoustic waves observedin several fan-like loop structures using two independent methods. Thedependence of the damping length on temperature has been studied for the firsttime. The results do not indicate any apparent decrease in damping length withtemperature, which is in contrast to the existing viewpoint. Comparing with thecorresponding theoretical values calculated from damping due to thermalconduction, it is inferred that thermal conduction is suppressed in hotterloops. An alternative interpretation that suggests thermal conduction is notthe dominant damping mechanism, even for short period waves in warm activeregion loops, is also presented.
