MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, NOAA 1140 added a few sunspots located in its trailing polarity portion. Low-level B-class events probable today. The position of NOAA 1140 on January 11 at 14:00 UT is: N32W69 (Solar X = 772", Solar Y = 537") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Target region, NOAA 1140, produced a few B-class events since the last message. The largest B-class event was a B4.6 at 01/10/10:28 UT. Additional B-class events are probable today. The position of NOAA 1140 on January 10 at 16:30 UT is: N32W58 (Solar X = 702", Solar Y = 547") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar flare activity remains at a very low level. The target region, NOAA 1140, produced a minor B1.3 event at 01/09/13:51 UT. 1140 has decayed somewhat within its trailing polarity portion. Solar flare activity is expected to continue at very low levels. A B-class event is still possible today. The position of NOAA 1140 on January 9 at 17:30 UT is: N33W46 (Solar X = 589", Solar Y = 570") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar flare activity is low. NOAA 1139 (S27W84) produced a B2.5 event at 01/08/09:23 UT. Target region 1142 (S14W55) continues to decay. We'll switch to new target NOAA 1140. 1140 has an unusual E-W magnetic inversion line with small positive polarity trailer spots located north of its large negative polarity leader sunspot. Solar flare activity is expected to remain at a low level. A B-class event is possible today. The position of NOAA 1140 on January 8 at 17:30 UT is: N33W34 (Solar X = 458", Solar Y = 577") See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, The level of solar flare activity is very low. NOAA region 11142 has maintained area coverage and a beta magnetic classification despite halving in number of spots. This region remains bright in H-alpha and UV plage emission. B-class activity is probable. The position of NOAA 11142 on 7-Jan-2011 at 10:30 UT is: S14W38, ( 582", -188" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar flare activity is at a very low level. NOAA region 11142 continues to decay, losing area coverage and number of spots, while remaining bright in H-alpha emission. B-class activity is probable. The position of NOAA 11142 on 6-Jan-2011 at 10:00 UT is: S13W24, ( 381", -165" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, The level of solar flare activity is low. NOAA 11142 has maintained a beta magnetic classification while growing in numbers of spots and decaying in area. This region remains bright in compact EUV-emitting loops as well as H-alpha and UV plage emission. B-class activity is expected, with a small chance for a C-class event if the region continues to fragment. The position of NOAA 11142 on 5-Jan-2011 at 10:00 UT is: S12W11, ( 175", -146" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar flare activity is at a low level. NOAA regions 11141 and 11142 both have bipolar beta magnetic classifications, with 11142 showing the most spots and greatest area coverage. NOAA 11142 has been the source of several B-class flares and a C1.1 flare on 3-Jan-2011 at 23:26 UT. More B-class activity is expected, with a chance for another C-class flare. The position of NOAA 11142 on 4-Jan-2011 at 12:00 UT is: S13W00, ( -6", -164" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar flare activity is very low. NOAA region 11142 has continued to grow in area coverage over the last 24 hours. This region remains bright in H-alpha and compact EUV loop emission. B-class activity is probable. The position of NOAA 11142 on 3-Jan-2011 at 13:00 UT is: S12E14, ( -229", -150" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, The level of solar flare activity is very low. Two newly spotted regions with beta magnetic classifications have emerged in the last 24 hours. NOAA 11142 is the target of choice because it is more compact and appears to be continuing to grow in area coverage. B-class activity is probable, with a small chance of a C-class event. The position of NOAA 11142 on 2-Jan-2011 at 12:00 UT is: S14E26, ( -422", -190" ) See http://www.SolarMonitor.org for images and http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml for a description of the current Max Millennium Observing Plan.
