Solar prominences: theory and models [PDF]

open access: yesLiving 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]

open access: yesLiving 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 ...

Rediscovering the observations of solar prominences from 1906 to 1957 recorded at the Madrid Astronomical Observatory

open access: yesJournal 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.

Solar prominences [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings 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 ...

On the association of solar radio emission and solar prominences. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1956
Prominence cinematograms made at Sacramento Peak and climax in the years 1949?55 have been examined and compared with the solar radio records at 167 Mc/s. No close connexion was found between limb events and radio events, but some eruptions were found to be associated with simultaneous radio bursts. Three such cases are discussed in detail.

Solar prominence polarimetry [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & 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.

Time‐Latitude Distribution of Prominences for 10 Solar Cycles: A Study Using Kodaikanal, Meudon, and Kanzelhohe Data

open access: yesEarth 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.

The Solar Prominences [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1870
IT may interest some of your readers to hear that the bright lines of the hydrogen “flames” extending beyond the sun's disc can be seen with much less instrumental aid than has hitherto been considered indispensable. I have succeeded in seeing them quite unmistakably by the following very simple means. I fixed one of Mr.

Prominence oscillations

open access: yesLiving 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.
