Scientific paper

Condensation modes in a magnetized cylindrical plasma are studied to shed light on the formation and stability of solar prominences. A rigorous mathematical derivation of the perturbation equation is developed, and the effect of field twist on the stability is studied for an equilibrium with uniform field twist, in which temperatures increases, but density does not, as pressure increases. The results indicate that prominences may form in globally magnetohydrodynamic-stable magnetic loops with very low field twist. Prominences are also more likely to form in a region of weaker area-averaged magnetic field.
