Prominences are intriguing, but poorly understood, magnetic structures of the solar corona.
The dynamics of solar prominences has been the subject of a large number of studies, and …

Quiescent prominences can be modeled as thin slabs of cold, dense plasma embedded in
the much hotter and rarer solar corona. Although their global shape is rather irregular, they …

Aims. The role of collisions between ions, electrons and neutrals in a partially ionised
plasma is assessed as a possible wave damping mechanism. The relevance of this …

Solar prominences are partially ionized plasma structures embedded in the solar corona.
Ground-and space-based observations have confirmed the presence of oscillatory motions …

Context. Investigations of the behavior of small-scale threads can provide an alternative
approach to studying prominence dynamics and understanding its origin and nature. Aims …

Oscillations and propagating waves are commonly seen in high-resolution observations of
filament threads, ie, the fine-structures of solar filaments/prominences. Since the …

Context. Longitudinal filament oscillations recently attracted increasing attention, while the
restoring force and the damping mechanisms are still elusive. Aims. We intend to investigate …

High-resolution observations provide evidence of the existence of small-amplitude
transverse oscillations in solar filament fine structures. These oscillations are believed to …

High-resolution observations show that oscillations and waves in prominence threads are
common and that they are attenuated in a few periods. In addition, observers have also …

Aims. We study the joint effect of ion-neutral collisions and thermal mechanisms on the
damping of MHD waves in a partially ionised prominence plasma. Methods. Thermal …
