MM#009 Default HESSI Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, NOAA 1620 was the source of C-class activity in the past 24 hours. The region appears to have lost its delta configuration but remains a large E-type/beta-gamma region. C-class events probable with a chance of an isolated M-class event before 1620 completes west limb passage. The position of NOAA 1620 on November 30 at 14:00 UT is: S13W77 (Solar X = 924", Solar Y = -222") 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 1620 is mostly unchanged maintaining its E-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group classification. 1620 produced several C-class events and an isolated M2.2 event at 11/28/21:36 UT. Additional C-class activity expected with a chance of another isolated M-class event possible in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 1620 on November 29 at 14:00 UT is: S12W65 (Solar X = 863", Solar Y = -209") 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 1620 produced C-class activity and an isolated M1.0 at 11/27/21:26 UT. The region is maintaining an E-type/beta-gamma sunspot group with a weak delta configuration located within the intermediate portion of its sunspot group. C-class events probable with another isolated M-class event possible in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 1620 on November 28 at 14:00 UT is: S12W51 (Solar X = 741", Solar Y = -214") 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 1620 appears to have stabilized its growth. It is currently classified as an E-type/beta-gamma region. 1620 was the source of numerous C-class events. The largest was a C5.9 at 11/27/02:15 UT. The largest event in the past 24 hours was an isolated M1.6 at 11/27/15:57 UT produced by decaying region NOAA 1618 (N08W77). C-class events probable from both 1620 and 1618 with the chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 1620 on November 27 at 14:00 UT is: S13W36 (Solar X = 558", Solar Y = -236") 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 1618, N08W63, continues to slowly decay and was quiescent. NOAA 1620 continued in strong growth phase overnight. 1620 is currently a D-type/beta-gamma region. It was the source of numerous C-class events in the past 24 hours. We'll switch to NOAA 1620 today. Additional C-class events expected with a slight chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 1620 at 14:00 UT is: S13W22 (Solar X = 356", Solar Y = -241") 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 1618 is slowly decaying and has been quiescent in the past 24 hours. The region is maintaining a weak E-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group. NOAA 1620 (S12W08) has switched into growth phase and is currently the brightest plage on the visible disk. C-class events possible from both1618 and 1620 in the next 24 hour period. There is also a chance of an isolated M-class event from 1618. The position of NOAA 1618 on November 25 at 14:00 UT is: N08W49 (Solar X = 728", Solar Y = 118") 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 1618 continues in decay phase. It was the source of several C-class events since the last message. The largest was a C3.3 at 11/24/13:40 UT. Additional C-class events probable with only a slight chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 1618 on November 24 at 14:00 UT is: N08W35 (Solar X = 553", Solar Y = 112") 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 1618 continues in decay phase. It was the source of only minor C- and B-class events in the past 24 hours. 1618 is currently classified as an E-type/beta-gamma region. B- and C-class events probable with a slight chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 1618 on November 23 at 14:00 UT is: N08W21 (Solar X = 346", Solar Y = 107") 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#003 Major Flare Watch

22 Nov '12

MM#003 Major Flare Watch Dear RHESSI Collaborators, NOAA 1618 has decayed especially within its central portion where the main delta configuration has broken apart. There is a weaker delta located in the trailing area of the region's E-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group. 1618 only managed to produce minor C-class activity since the last message. We'll continue the MFW for the next 24 hour period. There is still a chance of an isolated event =/>M5. The position of NOAA 1618 on November 22 at 14:00 UT is: N09W07 (Solar X = 117", Solar Y = 120") 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#003 Major Flare Watch

21 Nov '12

MM#003 Major Flare Watch Dear RHESSI Collaborators, NOAA 1618 has developed rapidly increasing its sunspot count, sunspot area, and magnetic complexity. 1618 is currently a large E-type/beta-gamma sunspot group with a magnetic delta configuration located within its central portion. 1618 was the source of 3 M-class events since the last message. The largest was an M3.5 at 11/21/15:30 UT. At this time we are implementing Max Millennium coordinated observing plan #003 (Region Likely To Produce A Major Flare). A major flare =/>M5 is possible in the next 24 to 48 hours. There is a slight chance of an X-class event as well if 1618 continues in strong growth phase. The position of NOAA 1618 on November 21 at 14:00 UT is: N08E06 (Solar X = -100", Solar Y = 101") 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.
