Scientific paper

We investigate numerically the normal modes of oscillation of Menzel's (1951) two-dimensional, isothermal magneto static equilibrium model of a prominence, comparing its periods with those predicted from the magnetoacoustic modes of a non-gravitating, uniform, bounded medium. The periods of the fundamental magnetoacoustic modes are changed only slightly in the presence of stratification and field-line curvature. An order of magnitude estimate for these periods is thus provided by a simple slab-type model of a prominence.
