Prominence environment
Abstract
Studies of prominences vis a vis the surrounding corona provide insight into basic questions about the formation of prominences, their stability and support, and their mass and energy balance. The present review discusses observational and theoretical results on helmet streamers, cavities, filament channels, and the prominence-corona transition sheath.
