MM#009 Default HESSI Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 10 Apr '16

10 Apr '16

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, NOAA 2529 produced 10 C-class events in the past 24 hours. 2529 has increased its magnetic complexity somewhat due to new opposite polarity flux emerging on the southeastern edge of the large leading polarity sunspot's penumbra. C-class events expected with a slight increase in the chances of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2529 on April 10 at 14:15 UT is: N10E47 (Solar X = -692", Solar Y = 232") 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 2529 was the source of C-class events in the past 24 hours. 2529 is currently displaying a large E-type/beta sunspot group. B- and C-class events probable with a slight chance of an M-class event in the next 24-48 hours. The position of NOAA 2529 on April 09 at 14:15 UT is: N10E62 (Solar X = -835", Solar Y = 212") 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 very low level. Target region, NOAA 2529, has completed east limb passage but is still too close to the east limb to fully ascertain its magnetic complexity but it appears to have a simple beta configuration. B-class events probable, a C-class event is possible with a slight chance of an M-class event in the next 24-48 hours. The position of NOAA 2529 on April 08 at 15:15 UT is: N10E75 (Solar X = -912", Solar Y = 191") 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 2528 is slowly decaying. The target will switch to a new region located mostly beyond the northeastern limb. A large leader sunspot has just appeared on the limb at N10 degrees. This limb region was the source of several limb occulted B- and C-class events since the last message. B- and C-class events expected with a chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24-48 hours. The approximate position of the target on April 07 at 14:15 UT is: N10E88 (Solar X = -943", Solar Y = 169") 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 EFR located in the trailing portion of target region NOAA 2528 developed slowly in the past 24 hours. The region's sunspot group is now classified as a D-type with a weak beta-gamma magnetic configuration with an east-west magnetic inversion line. 2528 only managed to produce minor B-class events since the last message. The largest event in the past 24 hours was a C1.1 produced by NOAA 2526 (S03W91) at 04/06/10:00 UT. B-class events probable with a slight chance of an isolated C-class event in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 2528 on April 06 at 11:15 UT is: N07W28 (Solar X = 448", Solar Y = 208") 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. The background x-ray flux is currently B1.2. Target region, NOAA 2528 was the source of two minor B-class events in the past 24 hours. The largest was an isolated B4.6 at 04/05/07:37 UT. 2528 is displaying opposite polarity flux emerging within the trailing portion of its B-type/beta sunspot group. B-class events probable with a very slight chance of an isolated C-class event if growth continues within the trailing area. The position of NOAA 2528 on April 05 at 14:15 UT is: N07W17 (Solar X = 279", Solar Y = 216") 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. The current background x-ray flux is B1.0. The recently emerged target region is now numbered NOAA 2528. Although 2528 has a simple C-type/beta sunspot group, it is the most interesting region on the visible solar disk. B-class flare activity is possible in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2528 on April 04 at 10:30 UT is: N07W01 (Solar X = 017", 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.

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar activity remains at a very low level. Yesterday's target region NOAA 12526 has been flare quiet with preserving a H-type/alpha magnetic configuration. Today the target will switch to a flux emerging region (FER, unnumbered) near the solar disk center. It seems that this FER has produced several very minor events (~B2) in the past few hours. Low level activities are expected in the next 24 hours. The approximate position of the target on April 3 at 18:05 UT is: N07E10 (Solar X = -180", Solar Y = 210") 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 a very low level. Target region NOAA 12526 is mostly unchanged preserving a H-type/alpha magnetic configuration. No noteworthy events are likely in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 12526 on April 2 at 17:31 UT is: S05W46 (Solar X = 689", Solar Y = -8") 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 very low with only a few B1 events emanating from the target region NOAA 12526. 12526 is preserving its H-type/alpha magnetic configuration. No noteworthy activities are likely over the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 12526 on April 1 at 14:35 UT is: S05W31 (Solar X = 494", Solar Y = -9") 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.
