AbstractSpectra of rare earth elements, praseodymium, europium, gadolinium, dysprosium and ytterbium (Z=59 to Z=70) have been recorded from a high temperature (Te=1–1.4 keV) - low density (ne=1013cm−3) tokamak plasma, in the 50–200 Å range. The absolute brightnesses of the lines originating in 4–4 transitions of Cu I and Zn I-like ions of the above mentioned elements have been measured by means of a photometrically calibrated grazing incidence spectrometer. Newly identified Cu I-like, 4s2S1/2-4p2P1/2transitions in Pr30+, Eu34+, Gd35+, Dy37+and Yb41, and intercombination transitions 4s21S0-4s4p3P1, in the Zn I-like ions of the mentioned elements are presented. The identifications are based on interpolation of previous experimental results, ab initio energy level computations using the RELAC code and are substantiated by the time histories of individual spectral lines. The experimental line intensities of the Cu I and Zn I-like ions are compared with those predicted by a collisional-radiative model under the conditions of the tokamak plasma.

AbstractEmission-line coronal images in Fe XIV (530.3 nm) and FeX (637.5 nm) show faint enhancements at the location of quiescent prominences. Such enhancements can appear in the outer portions of a prominence, similar to the high-temperature sheath surrounding prominences as inferred from UV and EUV observations. The observational evidence supports the interpretation that this enhanced coronal emission is due to energy carried by the prominence threads and dissipated in the adjacent coronal region. Also, observed coronal loop interactions involving partial magnetic reconnection have associated Hα structures. These structures can have the appearance of an active prominence, similar to those typically observed in post flare loop systems. It appears that the association of such active prominences with the adjacent corona is fundamentally different from that of quiescent prominences. The observations indicate that these types of active prominences arise simply as a consequence of reconnection processes in the corona itself.
