✦ Synopsis

The Hanle effect method has been applied to the determination of the magnetic field in 120 prominences of the polar crown observed during the 1974-1980 period, which is the ascending phase of cycle XXI. The average field strength which was about 6 G at the beginning of the cycle reached twice this value just before the maximum. There is also a clear trend for a increase of the prominence field with the altitude. We confirm the fact that the magnetic vector makes a small angle (25 ~ with the long axis of the prominence. As to the field orientation, we show that the most striking feature lies in the regular pattern of the component which is parallel to the axis of the filament; its direction seems to depend closely on the polarities of the high latitude photospheric field.

We have measured the longitudinal component, Bll, of the magnetic field in quiescent prominences and obtained a relationship between BII and 0, where 0 is the angle between the long axis of the prominence and the north-s0uth direction on the sun.
