The present work is a review of papers related to the theory of prominence radiation. Special attention is paid to stationary equations and the theory of radiation diffusion in the lines and continua of hydrogen, helium and metals. We conclude that prominences are low-temperature formations T e ≈7000 K, of low density ˜ 1012 particles per cm3, n e ≈1011 cm-3, effective thickness ˜ 109 cm, and that the chemical composition of prominences and that of the Sun's atmosphere are the same. The prominence radiation in the lines of hydrogen, helium and metals is due mainly to quasiresonance scattering of the photospheric radiation.
