MM#009 Default HESSI Target

09 Feb '11

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Target region, NOAA 1153, continued in strong growth phase yesterday developing a beta-gamma magnetic classification later in the day. 1153 was the source of an isolated impulsive M1.9 event at 02/09/01:28 UT. 1153 also produced 3 C-class events. The region is now too close to the west limb to ascertain its current magnetic configuration but appears to continue to develop displaying bright plage and a possible arch-type-filament system. Another M-class event is possible before west limb passage. The position of NOAA 1153 on February 09 at 16:00 UT is: N15W80 (Solar X = 925", Solar Y = 268") 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 1153, has developed remarkably and is now classified a D-type - beta region. 1153 was the source of several B-class events since the last report. B-class activity is expected to continue with a chance of a C-class event before 1153 completes west limb passage. The position of NOAA 1153 on February 08 at 16:30 UT is: N15W66 (Solar X = 859", Solar Y = 293") 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, NOAA 1152 continues in decay phase and is now spotless. New target NOAA 1153 has added a few small sunspots and has started to produce minor B-class events. Additional B-class activity is possible in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 1153 on February 07 at 15:30 UT is: N16W51 (Solar X = 728", Solar Y = 333") 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 extremely low. All of the few small regions on the visible hemisphere are stable. The target region continues to decay. No significant flare activity expected today. The position of NOAA 1152 on January 06 at 18:30 UT is: S18W25 (Solar X = 392", Solar Y = -206") 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, NOAA 1152 has significantly decayed since the last message. It was the source of only two B-class events in the last 24 hours. The largest was a B6.9 at 02/04/19:39 UT. Additional B-class events are possible today. The position of NOAA 1152 on February 05 at 16:30 UT is: S18W11 (Solar X = 177", Solar Y = -199") 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 1150, continues in decay phase and was quiet. The target will switch to recently emerged NOAA 1152 is producing B-class activity. The largest was a B9.5 at 02/04/12:20 UT. 1152 emerged on 2/2 and started a rapid growth phase yesterday. Its sunspot group is currently classified a D-type with a beta magnetic configuration. Continued development may result in a complex magnetic configuration. B-class activity certain with a good chance of a C-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 1152 on February 04 at 16:30 UT is: S18E01 (Solar X = -016", Solar Y = -199") 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, NOAA 1150 has decayed significantly since the last message. 1150 continues to be the source of B-class activity. Additional B-class events are possible with a very slight chance of an isolated C-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA on February 03 at 16:30 UT is: S20W12 (Solar X = 10",Solar Y = -235") 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, NOAA 1150 decayed slightly in its trailing area but added new flux in its intermediate portion. Its sunspot group is still classified a D-type/beta. 1140 continues to produce frequent B-class events. B-class activity expected to continue with a slight chance of an isolated C-class event. The position of NOAA 1150 on February 02 at 16:30 UT is: S22E01 (Solar X = -015", Solar Y = -267") 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, NOAA 1150 is mostly unchanged maintaining a D-type sunspot group with a beta magnetic configuration. It continues to produce minor B-class activity. It is expected to continue to be the source of B-class events with a slight chance of an isolated C-class event. The position of NOAA 1150 on February 01 at 16:00 UT is: S20E15 (Solar X = -237", Solar Y = -239") 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.
