MM#009 Default HESSI Target

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar flare activity continues at a low level but spotless NOAA 2076, S19W53, was the source of an interesting eruptive filament and associated C1.3 event at 05/31/15:56. NOAA region 2073 is decaying rapidly. The target will switch to the return of old NOAA 2055 located on the northeastern limb. A C-class event is possible in the next 24 hour period. The approximate position of the target on May 31 at 15:30 UT is: N13E89 (Solar X = -922", Solar Y = 213") 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 at a very low level. The background x-ray flux is flat at the B2 level. The target region, NOAA 2073, displayed minor flux emergence yesterday but is continuing to be quiescent. No significant solar flare activity expected in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2073 on May 30 at 15:30 UT is: S13W52 (Solar X = 728", Solar Y = -204") 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 continues at a very low level. All the numbered regions on the visible solar disk are stable and in decay phase. The EFR target, now numbered 2076, is also stable and quiescent. The target will switch to NOAA 2073. No significant solar flare activity is expected in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2073 on May 29 at 15:30 UT is: S13W38 (Solar X = 569", Solar Y = -201") 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 2065 is now one day beyond the southwestern limb. It was the source of a minor C1.7 event at 05/28/02:21 UT. The new target will be an EFR located near disk center. No significant solar flare activity expected anytime soon. The position of the EFR target on May 28 at 10:45 UT is: S19W06 (Solar X = 094", Solar Y = -290") 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 2065 was the source of a limb occulted C4.9 event at 05/27/14:15 UT. 2065 is now located just beyond the southeastern limb but it might produce another interesting limb event today. The position of NOAA 2065 on May 27 at 15:30 UT is: S19W91 (Solar X = 894", Solar Y = -308") 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 currently at a low level. Target region NOAA 2065 has decayed somewhat but is still maintaining a D-type/beta-gamma sunspot group and bright plage. There is a chance of C-class activity with a slight chance of an isolated M-class event before 2065 completes west limb passage. The position of NOAA 2065 on May 26 at 11:30 UT is: S19W80 (Solar X = 882", Solar Y = -304") 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 has increased over the past 24 hours with an M1.3 flare emanating from NOAA 12065 at 18:26 UT yesterday. The region has undergone rapid development as it approaches the western limb, and is now categorized as a beta-gamma region. NOAA 12065 shall be the new target region with further C-level activity expected and chance for another isolated M-class event. The position of NOAA 12065 on 25-May-2014 at 11:35 UT is: S18W66, ( 824", -283" ) 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 remains at the C1 level. NOAA 12071 retains its beta-gamma configuration but has remained quiescent since the last message. Nearby NOAA 12073 has undergone significant flux emergence over the past 24 hours and is also now classified as a beta-gamma region. It produced a C1.1 flare at 10:34 UT yesterday. NOAA 12071 shall continue to be the target region but also include NOAA 12073 in your field of view if possible. Further C-level activity likely. The position of NOAA 12071 on 24-May-2014 at 07:35 UT is: S12E17, ( -271", -172" ) 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 12071, was the source of a C1.1 flare at 22:14 UT yesterday. The region has increased in complexity to a beta-gamma region but has also shown signs of fragmentation and decay. NOAA 12071 shall remain the target region with a chance for additional low level events. The position of NOAA 12071 on 23-May-2014 at 07:35 UT is: S12E31, ( -479", -173" ) 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. A newly emerged region close to disc center (NOAA 12072) was the source of a C6.4 flare ot 03:04 UT today. NOAA 12071 has continued to show signs of development but has remained quiescent since the last message. NOAA 12071 shall remain the target region for a further 24 hours. Chance for isolated low-level events. The position of NOAA 12071 on 22-May-2014 at 07:35 UT is: S12E44, ( -645", -175") 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.
