Scientific paper

The wavelength dependence of filament features is studied, using high-resolution filtergrams taken at seven wavelengths in H-alpha. The observed contrast profiles are compared with profiles calculated on the basis of Beckers' (1964) 'cloud' model. The deviation between observed and calculated profiles is used to suggest a progression among the observed profiles that depends on the height of the filament feature. Both upward and downward velocities are detected. The fine-scale features in the filament and the corresponding velocity field vary with a time constant of a few minutes.
