Abstract: This presentation shows the results of the first statistical study of prominence eruptions observed with the FSI (Full Sun Imager) 304 Å instrument of EUI (Extreme Ultraviolet Imager) onboard SolO (Solar Orbiter). The large field of view of FSI allows observation of solar eruptions from the solar disk up to heights never observed before in EUV passbands. We identified 229 prominence eruptions in the years 2021 and 2022 from the detailed catalogue available at https://www.sidc.be/EUI/solar-eruptions. The analysis of the 229 prominence eruptions oQers a wide perspective on the variability within these phenomena of diQerent properties such as speed, deflection, maximum height, and morphological features. These results demonstrate the unique capability of EUI/FSI to bridge the gap between the low and high corona. The observed diversity in morphology and kinematics provides new constraints for models of solar eruptions and their role in driving space weather disturbances.
