Coronal Condensation in Funnel Prominences as Return Flows of the Chromosphere-Corona Mass Cycle |

We present SDO/AIA observations of a potentially novel type of prominence, called "funnel prominence", that forms out of coronal condensation at magnetic dips. They can drain a large amount of mass (up to 1015 g/day) and may play an important role as return flows of the recently recognized chromosphere-corona mass cycle. We compare funnel prominences with large-scale polar crown prominences, cloud prominences or coronal spiders, as well as coronal rain.
