Scientific paper

The white light coronagraph (WLC) experiment of the Skylab/ATM obtained an unprecedented series of observations of the solar corona from 1.5 to 6 solar radii for approximately eight and one-half months. Coronal evolution and disruptions seen by the WLC occur on many different time scales. Some illustrative examples will be shown. The characteristics of mass ejection coronal transients - as we presently know them - will be given. These include: the greater than expected frequency of occurrence; the correlation with solar activity; the quantity of mass and energy contained in a transient; etc.
