MM#009 Default HESSI Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 20 Jun '11

20 Jun '11

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, The Sun produced two mid to low C class flares yesterday: a C4 flare from NOAA 11234 on the west limb and a C1.5 from 11237, an alpha region in the south east quadrant. AR 11236 will continue to be today's target at it crosses the meridian. It maintains its beta gamma configuration and mixed polarity leading spot. Further C class flares possible in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 11236 on 20-Jun-2011 at 15:30 UT is: N16W03 ( 47", 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.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar activity continues at low levels. The target region NOAA 11236 continues to decay and was the source of a B9.1 flare at 02:21 UT today. Further low-level activity likely with chance for an isolated C-class flare. The position of NOAA 11236 on 19-Jun-2011 at 10:30 UT is: N17E12, ( -188", 253" ) 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 activity is at low levels. The C3.9 flare at 23:37 UT yesterday emanated from NOAA 11234. The target region NOAA 11236 has begun to decay and had been downgraded from a beta-delta to a beta-gamma region. There is still a chance for some C-level activity from the target region over the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 11236 on 18-Jun-2011 at 10:30 UT is: N17E27, ( -411", 257" ) 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 conditions have remained quiet over the past 24 hours with the target region NOAA 11236 producing only B-level events. The region has remained unchanged in terms of size and complexity. C-level activity is still likely with a slight chance of an isolated M-class flare. The position of NOAA 11236 on 17-Jun-2011 at 10:30 UT is: N17E40, ( -582", 261" ) 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, NOAA 11236 has been upgraded to a beta-gamma region and has almost doubled in size since the last message. The region produced a C7.1 flare at 10:13 UT today. Further C-level activity likely with chance for an isolated M-class flare. The position of NOAA 11236 on 16-Jun-2011 at 10:30 UT is: N17E52, ( -713", 256" ) 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 target region in the northeast quadrant, now numbered NOAA 11236, was the source of an M1.3 flare at 21:36 UT yesterday, as well as a C-class flare at 11:41 UT today. The region is classified as a beta region with a strong leader spot and bright H-alpha emission. Further C-level activity expected with chance of another isolated M-class flare. The position of NOAA 11236 on 15-Jun-2011 at 15:30 UT is: N17E55, ( -741", 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.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, The unnumbered target region on the east limb produced two low-C-class flares since the last message. Its magnetic configuration is still uncertain at this time but it appears to have a pronounced leader spot. Further C-level activity is likely, with a slight chance of an isolated M-class as the region rotates on to the disk. The approximate position of the target region on 14-Jun-2011 at 15:30 UT is: N18E72, ( -855", 288" ) 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, The east limb target region was the source of 4 B-class events and the C1.2 event at 06/13/00:55 UT. The region is mostly beyond the limb so its magnetic configuration is unknown. B-class events are certain with a good chance of another C-class event during the next 24 hour period and an isolated M-class event is possible in the next few days if the region reveals a complex magnetic configuration after it rotates onto the visible solar disk. The approximate position of the target region on June 13 at 06:15 UT is: N17E89 (Solar X = -903", Solar Y = 276") 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, The visible solar disk is very quiescent. NOAA 1234 has decayed significantly. The new target is a region located beyond the northeast limb. This region was the source of two B-class events since the last message. Additional B-class events are possible in the next 24 hour period with a slight chance of a C-class event. The approximate position of the target on June 12 at 06:30 UT is: N18E90 (Solar X = -899", Solar Y = 292") 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 expected to be very low during the next 24 hours. NOAA 1234 is in decay phase but maintaining a beta magnetic configuration. The other regions on the visible disk are either spotless or have a very simple alpha magnetic classification. A weak B-class x-ray event is possible today. The position of NOAA 1234 on June 11 at 10:30 UT is: S16E37 (Solar X = -548", 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.
