Left to right: AIA 304 Å snapshots showing the prominence at the limb immediately before the reconnection occurring at 16:02 UT, shortly after, and in a new quasi-steady state. The solid square indicates the location of the reconnection site. The blue dashed line outlines the axes of the coronal loop bundle that becomes thermally unstable. After a few days, the prominence is still visible on-disc as a filament (top right). The white dotted lines outline the filament turns. The HMI magnetogram (bottom right) shows that the flux rope lies along a polarity inversion line with one leg embedded in a flux cancellation region (green dotted square).
