Abstract: In this study we performed a statistical analysis of prominence eruptions recorded by the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager/Full Sun Imager (EUI/FSI) on board Solar Orbiter during the years 2021 and 2022. We start from the comprehensive list of eruptions available at https://www.sidc.be/EUI/solar-eruptions. From this, for a more detailed analysis of their kinematics, we selected events with available data and for which the observed projected height of the prominence exceeded 2 solar radii. The large field of view (up to 14 solar radii) allows FSI to observe solar eruptions from the solar disc up to heights never before observed in EUV passbands. This makes the instrument uniquely suited for tracing the early phases of eruptions through the middle corona. The large set of investigated events (230 prominences) offers a wide perspective on the inherent variability within these phenomena. This ongoing statistical analysis aims at deepening our knowledge on the various properties of these eruptions, such as speed, deflection and morphological features. Using observations taken by SDO/AIA, we can analyze their 3D characteristics and their interaction with neighbouring magnetic field structures. We present here this statistical study with an overview of the observed prominence eruptions and their properties.
