Bibliography: p. [140]-148.
The historical background of the study of solar prominences is considered along with morphological classifications, observational data, models, and questions regarding the formation of prominences. The stability of prominences is investigated, taking into account the heating problem, the importance of magnetic fields, and the disparition brusque as an instability. Questions concerning the interaction of prominences with centers of activity are also explored, giving attention to the influence of sunspots, prominence flare interactions, and the interaction of prominences with each other.
