The High Altitude Observatory's white light coronagraph aboard Skylab observed some 110 coronal transients -rapid changes in appearance of the corona -during its 227 days of operation. The longitudes of the origins of these transients were not distributed uniformly around the solar surface (51 of th

A model for the motion of transients in the high corona, recently given by Anzer (1978), is extended to include also the onset of a transient, associated with prominence destabilization. A comparison is made with flare instabilities, and some relevant observations are considered.
Coronal mass ejection transients observed with the white light coronagraph on Skylab are found to be associated with several other forms of solar activity. There is a strong correlation between such mass ejection transients and chromospheric Ha activity, with three-quarters of the transients apparen
The positions of X-ray coronal transients outside of active regions observed during Skylab were superposed on Ha synoptic charts and coronal hole boundaries for seven solar rotations. We confirmed a detailed spatial association between the transients and neutral lines. We found that most of the tran
