Three quiescent prominences were observed in the Ca ~I K-line and a fourth one also in the H-line at Oslo Solar Observatory, Harestua, and reduced by Rustad (1974) and by Engvold et al. (1980). These data are used to study the distribution of the line-of-sight velocity component, N(uo). It is pointe

Quiescent prominences occur as long-lasting cool sheets of matter in the surrounding hot corona at the base of coronal streamers. Seen on the disk they appear as dark filaments dividing regions of opposite magnetic polarity. In this paper a theoretical model is presented, which describes the genera
With the purpose of detecting periodic oscillations or waves in a quiescent prominence, temporal variations ofa CaII K line profile have been studied. The most conspicuous phenomenon found here is the fact that the edge of the prominence showed, over some 20000 km along the spectrograph-s/it, period
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. From this relationship we deduce a distribution funct
In some quiescent prominences, areas are found where the Ha emission profiles are centrally reversed. By combining good spatial, spectral, and temporal resolution, the detailed behavior of these reversal regions has been investigated. Many of the regions show a growth and subsequent decay in the aff
On the basis of Kippenhahn and Schltiter's magnetohydrostatic model of a quiescent prominence we have attempted to study the effect of a rotational velocity field in it. We find that a physically plausible solution is not possible in the vertical plane. A possibility, however, is shown in the horizo
