Observations and analysis of solar flare activated ascending “Fountain type” prominence of 1 February 1979 are presented. This “Fountain” prominence rose to 180,000 km above the solar surface and gave rise to a number of ascending loops and helical structure. These “helicals” are clear manifestation of magnetic field configuration. From these observations it is shown that, as the “Fountain” prominence rises, it carries along with it the complex magnetic field which unfolds as the prominence material expands into distinct magnetic field lines. Several type III radio bursts were also seen associated with this event. No type II or IV radio emission was reported.
