MM#009 Default Target



Dear Collaborators,

Solar activity has remained low. The largest event since the 
last message was a C9.5 flare at 19:43 UT yesterday, attributed 
a newly emerged region NOAA 14353 (N17E03, beta/D-type). 
However, flares from other regions (e.g., the target NOAA 14345) 
also contributed to the soft X-ray flux. NOAA 14341 (S11W42, 
beta/C-type) and the target region NOAA 14345 (S17W35, beta-
gamma/E-type) produced a number of low C-class flares during 
the period. Today, we will continue monitoring NOAA 14345, with 
particular attention to its leading sunspot. Additional C-class activity 
is expected over the next 24 hours, with a chance of an isolated 
low M-class event.

The position of NOAA 14345 on 23-Jan-2026 12:30 UT is:

S17W35 (536",-213")
