Abstract: We investigate the standing kink modes of a cylindrical model of coronal loops. The density is stratified along the loop axis and changes discontinuously at the surface of the cylinder. The periods and mode profiles are studies with their deviation from those of the unstratified loops. The aim is to extract information on the density scale heights prevailing in the solar corona. The problem is reduced to solving a single second-order partial differential equation for $delta{B}_z(r,z)$, the longitudinal component of the Eulerian perturbations of the magnetic field. This equation, in turn, is separated into two second-order ordinary, differential equations in $r$ and $z$ that are, however, connected through a dispersion relation between the frequencies and the longitudinal wave numbers. In the thin tube approximation, the eigensolutions are obtained by a perturbation technique, where the perturbation parameter is the density stratification parameter. Otherwise the problem is solved numerically.
