Scientific paper

A model is presented which depends on the preferential deposition of heating in the legs of a coronal loop and which produces a stable prominence-scale condensation at the loop top. Dynamic stability is attained by the subsequent adjustment of local parallel gravity by a magnetic inversion at the loop (or arcade) apex. A nonlinear numerical simulation of this process, which includes a deep chromosphere, a heating rate with a fixed dissipation length, and full solar gravity is described.
