MM#009 Default HESSI Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 11 Jan '18

11 Jan '18

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar activity continues at a very low level. No flares have occurred since the last message. The target region NOAA 12694 retains its alpha/A-type configuration. No noteworthy events are expected in the following 24 hours. The position of NOAA 12694 on January 11 at 08:30 UT is: S32W35 (475", -467") 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 with the GOES soft X-ray flux flat at ~A3.5. The target NOAA 12694 has decayed to an alpha/A-type configuration, which is currently the only region with sunspots on the visible solar disk. No significant activities are expected in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 12694 on January 10 at 14:30 UT is: S32W25 (350", -463") 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 GOES soft X-ray flux remains at a background level. The target region has been designated as NOAA 12694 with a beta/B-type configuration. 12694 has begun to decay. Only very minor activities are likely in the following 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 12694 on January 9 at 14:30 UT is: S32W11 (158", -461") 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 very low levels with the GOES soft X-ray flux flat at ~A3. Yesterday's target NOAA 12693 has been mostly unchanged and is rotating over the west limb. Today the target will switch to a newly emerged region in the southeast quadrant. Minor activities are possible in the next 24 hours. The approximate position of the target on January 8 at 14:30 UT is: S34E03 (-50", -500") 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 an extremely low level. Target region NOAA 2693 is mostly unchanged maintaining its alpha magnetic configuration with its single trailing polarity pore. No significant solar flare activity expected anytime soon. The position of NOAA 2693 on January 07 at 16:30 UT is: N19W75 (Solar X = 891", Solar Y = 332") 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 2693 has significantly decayed since the last message. Its sunspot group is currently displaying only a single pore located within the trailing portion of the region. No significant solar flare activity expected anytime soon. The position of NOAA 2693 on January 05 at 09:00 UT is: N18W44 (Solar X = 647", Solar Y = 343") 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, After a brief decay phase the target region, now numbered NOAA 2693, has new emerging flux displaying a B-type/beta sunspot group. Should 2693 continue to develop, B-class activity is possible in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 2693 on January 04 at 13:30 UT is: N18W33 (Solar X = 507", Solar Y = 349") 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 extremely low. The current background x-ray flux is flat at the A3 level. The visible solar disk is currently spotless. The tiny B-type/beta sunspot group in the small target region slowly decayed during the last 24 hour period. No significant solar flare activity expected anytime soon. The position of the target on January 03 at 15:30 UT is: N18W21 (Solar X = 334", Solar Y = 353") 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 extremely low. The target region has completed east limb passage. The region is spotless and very quiescent. The target will switch to a weak EFR with a tiny B-type/beta sunspot group. No noteworthy solar flare activity expected in the next 24 hour period. The position of the target on January 02 at 15:30 UT is: N18W08 (Solar X = 130", Solar Y = 354") 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.
