Recently, strongly damped Doppler shift oscillations of hot (T > 6 MK) coronal loops were observed with the Solar Ultraviolet Measurement of Emitted Radiation (SUMER) spectrometer on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory. The oscillations are interpreted as signatures of slow-mode magnetosonic waves excited impulsively in the loops. Using a one-dimensional MHD code, we model the oscillations and the damping of slow magnetosonic waves in a model coronal loop. We find that because of the high temperature of the loops, the large thermal conduction, which depends on temperature as T-2.5, leads to rapid damping of the slow waves on a timescale comparable to observations (5.5-29 minutes). The scaling of the dissipation time with period agrees well with SUMER observations of 35 cases in 17 events. We also find that the decay time due to compressive viscosity alone is an order of magnitude longer than the observed decay times.
