Solar prominences: theory and models [PDF]
Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2018 Magnetic fields suspend the relatively cool material of solar prominences in an otherwise hot corona. A comprehensive understanding of solar prominences ultimately requires complex and dynamic models, constrained and validated by observations spanning ...

Solar Prominences: Observations [PDF]
Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2014 Solar prominences are one of the most common features of the solar atmosphere. They are found in the corona but they are one hundred times cooler and denser than the coronal material, indicating that they are thermally and pressure isolated from the ...

Earth and Space Science, 2020 Solar prominences are structures of importance because of their role in polar field reversal. We study the long‐term variation of the time latitude distribution of solar prominences in this article.

Tangled Magnetic Fields in Solar Prominences [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2010 Solar prominences are an important tool for studying the structure and evolution of the coronal magnetic field. Here we consider so-called "hedgerow" prominences, which consist of thin vertical threads.

Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2023 The Madrid Astronomical Observatory implemented a solar observation program from 1876 to 1986. In addition to sunspots, the observers at this observatory recorded other solar features such as prominences.

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008 AbstractSolar filaments (or prominences) are magnetic structures in the corona. They can be represented by twisted flux ropes in a bipolar magnetic environment. In such models, the dipped field lines of the flux rope carry the filament material and parasitic polarities in the filament channel are responsible for the existence of the lateral feet of ...

Solar prominence polarimetry [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2003 We measure the resonance polarization in solar prominences in H α , H β and HeD 3 . A two-dimensional set-up with narrow-band filter, polarization analyzer and CCD camera is used to take prominence images in polarized light at high spatial resolution.

Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2018 Prominences are intriguing, but poorly understood, magnetic structures of the solar corona. The dynamics of solar prominences has been the subject of a large number of studies, and of particular interest is the study of prominence oscillations.

Helium Emissions Observed in Ground-Based Spectra of Solar Prominences [PDF]
, 2012 The only prominent line of singly ionized helium in the visible spectral range, helium-II 4686 A, is observed together with the helium-I 5015 A singlet and the helium-I 4471 A triplet line in solar prominences.
