The reported observations were carried out by means of a 25 cm coronagraph/coude spectrograph with a Si vidicon Optical Multichannel Analyzer (OMA) detector. The results of the investigation are presented in a number of tables, and the main conclusions concerning the studies are discussed. The relative behavior of prominence Na D line emission shows that the employed observing techniques yield reliable measures of prominence line strengths, not degraded to any substantial extent, in particular, by possible slit-filling effects. This conclusion is limited principally by the assumption that systematic vertical velocity fields in the prominences are not greater than 1.5 km/s. The Na D line profiles are well fitted by a one-component (i.e., homogeneous) line-forming region, thus reinforcing previous conclusions regarding the source of the enhanced wing emission.
