Abstract

On 11 September 1973 a peculiar prominence was observed. The prominence displayed strong (∼ 50km s−1) systematic motions toward and away from the observer. The unusual spectrographic appearance of the prominence might have been due to downflowing material lifted into the corona during an earlier coronal transient.
