Context. In previous work, we studied a prominence which appeared like a tornado in a movie made from 193 {\AA} filtergrams obtained with the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) imager aboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). The…

A variety of periodic phenomena have been observed in conjunction with large solar jets. We aim to find further evidence for {(quasi-)}periodic behaviour in solar jets and determine what the periodic behaviour can tell us about the…

Prominences or filaments are cool clouds of partially ionized plasma living in the solar corona. Ground- and space-based observations have confirmed the presence of oscillatory motions in prominences and they have been interpreted in terms…

We report on active region EUV dynamic events observed simultaneously at high-cadence with SUMER/SoHO and TRACE. Although the features appear in the TRACE Fe ix/x 171A images as jets seen in projection on the solar disk, the SUMER spectral…

High-resolution observations of dynamic phenomena give insight into properties and processes that govern the low solar atmosphere. We present the analysis of jet-like phenomena emanating from a penumbral foot-point in active region (AR)…

Coronal rain clumps and prominence knots are dense condensations with chromospheric to transition region temperatures that fall down in the much hotter corona. Their typical speeds are in the range 30--150~km~s$^{-1}$ and of the order of…

The launch of the Hinode satellite has allowed for seeing-free observations at high-resolution and high-cadence making it well suited to study the dynamics of quiescent prominences. In recent years it has become clear that quiescent…

We present high spatial resolution spectroscopic measurements of dynamic fibrils (DFs) in the Ca {\small{II}} 8662 {\AA} line. These data show clear Doppler shifts in the identified DFs, which demonstrates that at least a subset of DFs are…

The linewidth of ions has been observed to be systematically narrower than that of the coexisting neutrals in molecular clouds (Houde et al. 2000) and been interpreted as the signature of the decoupling of the neutral turbulence from…
