MM#009 Default HESSI Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 31 May '16

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Target region NOAA 2550 (N15W39) has significantly decayed losing sunspot count, area, and its mixed polarities. 2550 was only able to produce one minor B-class event since the last message. The target will switch to recently emerged NOAA 2551. 2551 has developed a D-type/beta sunspot group in the past 24 hours. B-class events are possible with a slight chance of an isolated C-class event if 2551 continues in growth phase. The position of NOAA 2551 on May 31 at 14:17 UT is: N04W53 (Solar X = 755", Solar Y = 072") 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 2548 (N14W87) completed west limb passage. The new target is an EFR located in the northwestern quadrant. The EFR was the source of three B-class and two C-class events since the last message and is currently displaying bright dynamic H-alpha plage and a small cluster of sunspots with mixed polarities. B-class events expected with another C-class event probable in the next 24 hour period. The position of the target region on May 30 at 10:30 UT is: N14W23 (Solar X = 361", Solar Y = 197") 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 been at a very low level. The largest event since the last message was a B7.2 flare at 06:50 UT on May 29 produced by the target region NOAA 12548. 12548 has been decayed to a beta/C-type region. There is a filament in the east of this region, which might contribute some minor activities. The position of NOAA 12548 on May 29 at 20:17 UT is: N13W74 (887", 217") 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 to be very low with the GOES soft X-ray flux below the B5 level. The target region NOAA 12548 is currently the only region with sunspots on the visible disk. It is remaining its D-type/beta magnetic configuration. No significant activity is expected in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 12548 on May 28 at 17:17 UT is: N13W59 (792", 221") 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. The target region NOAA 12548 was the source of several minor B-class events. 12548 is maintaining its D-type/beta magnetic complexity with increasing in sunspot area and number of spots. Only minor activities are expected in the following 24 hours. The position of NOAA 12548 on May 27 at 20:17 UT is: N13W48 (687", 225") 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 largest event since the last message was a C1.1 flare at 13:31 UT on May 26 produced by NOAA 12548. 12548 was also the source of a few B-class events, including a B9.3 flare on May 25. Today the target will switch to 12548 that has a D-type/beta magnetic configuration. Yesterday's target NOAA 12546 also produced a C1.0 flare on May 26, but it is now nearly rotated over the visible solar disk. Further low-level C-class activities are likely in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 12548 on May 26 at 14:17 UT is: N13W30 (462", 231") 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 level of solar activity is very low. Target region NOAA 12546 was the source of a C-class event (accompanied by a weak CME) and several B-class flares since the last message. 12546 is showing some jet-like ejections. We will watch this region for one more day before it rotates over the west limb. Low-level activities are likely in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 12546 on May 25 at 17:17 UT is: S07W73 (899", -108") 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. The target region NOAA 12546 was the source of a C1.4 (at 10:16 UT on May 24) and a few B-class flares. 12546 is currently the only region with sunspots on the visible disk. It has decayed to an Alpha/H-type region, but continues to show surges in H-alpha images. Minor events are possible in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 12546 on May 24 at 14:17 UT is: S07W58 (798", -102") 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, Quiet-Sun conditions continue. The target region NOAA 12546 was the source of a B5.9 flare at 09:12 UT today but has been otherwise quiescent. The region continues to display low level flux emergence to the northeast of the positive leader spot which may result in additional isolated B-class flares over the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 12546 on 22-May-2016 at 20:17 UT is: S07W33, ( 513", -91" ) 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.
