Scientific paper

Sequences of soft X-ray pictures, taken aboard Skylab between May and November, 1973, have made it possible to detect slowly moving disturbances originating in disrupted filaments and causing subsequent brightenings of distant coronal structures. With speeds decreasing from approximately 400 km/sec shortly after the filament disruption to approximately 10 km/sec four or five hours later, these disturbances appear to be identical with slow waves earlier inferred by Bruzel (1952, 1969), Oehman (1953), and Yajima (1971) from chromospheric observations.
