Diffuse penetration of ionizing radiation into prominences with filamentary structure is considered. The equations of radiative transfer, ionization balance and steady state of the triplet system of the helium atom (with 27 levels and continuum) are solved for a chosen model of prominence. The calcu

Observations of a number of helium triplet (~.210830, 4713, 4471, 3889, 4026) and hydrogea (H),, g, r/, 0) emission line intensities in six quiescent prominences are presented. The regions of prominence and neighboring corona were raster-scanned by the telescope, and all lines were measured concurre
To calculate the Balmer, Paschen, and Brackett line intensities, we solved the statistical equilibrium equations for a twenty level plus continuum atom of hydrogen. From the temperature, ionization, and the first three level populations of the prominence models deduced in a previous work we have ca
The paper deals with the excitation of the he[ium singlet level 2~P in the homogeneous and filamentary models of quiescent prominences with following parameters: the optical thickness at the limit of helium Lyman continuum ~,. = 0.1-100, T~ = 7000 K, n,. = 5 x 10~~ cm -3. Assuming a model He I atom
Spectroscopic observations of the Nal D emission lines of prominences were made with the Domeless Solar Telescope in Hida Observatory. When active prominences are bright in the D 2 emission line, the intensity ratio of D~ to D 2 is found to deviate significantly from the theoretical ratio of the opt
