Notes. The following quantities are listed in the next six columns: temperatures, velocities v_mt of microturbulence, optical thickness τ₀(Hα), ionisation degrees i of hydrogen obtained from GBO in Hα and Ca ii H, and values of ionisation degrees j₁, j₂ of helium estimated from comparing of the 193 Å and 335 Å based masses. For each prominence observation (except for the small prominence No. 2), intervals within which values of T, v_mt, τ₀(Hα), i vary in the prominence areas are listed. In rows under intervals, numbers preceded by the abbreviation “mean” are values averaged from whole prominence areas.

^(a)

The small prominence was visible only in AIA and X-ray XRT images, it was not seen in Hα slit-jaw image of the SLS spectrograph. Therefore, no times are shown for the SLS observations, just the date. Unique value of i for the whole prominence was estimated together with j₁ and j₂ by comparing the 193 Å and 335 Å based masses.

^(b)

The same prominence as the large one from observation No. 2.
