MM#009 Default Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 21 Oct '18

21 Oct '18

MM#009 Default Target Dear Collaborators, Target region NOAA 2725 is mostly unchanged and quiescent. The target will switch to an emerging flux region located within the existing trailing portion of NOAA 2724. The EFR is currently displaying a tiny B-type/beta sunspot group and bright plage. B-class events possible in the next 24 hour period. The position of the target on October 21 at 15:30 UT is: S07W56 (Solar X = 795", Solar Y = -167") 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 Target Dear Collaborators, Solar flare activity continues at an extremely low level with no significant increase expected anytime soon. The visible solar disk is spotless. Target region NOAA 2724 (S09W38) is decaying slowly. The target will switch to NOAA 2725 located just east of 2724. 2725 is a smaller region but has brighter plage. If possible, include 2724 within F-O-V. No noteworthy events expected in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2725 on October 20 at 06:30 UT is: S09W23 (Solar X = 374", Solar Y = -234") 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 Target Dear Collaborators, Solar flare activity remains at an extremely low level. The last reported event was five days ago. The current visible solar disk is spotless. The target region NOAA 2724 is slowly decaying. 2724 has a small active filament located along its main magnetic inversion line. If possible, include NOAA 2725 (S09W10) within F-O-V. There is a slight chance of a minor B-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2724 on October 19 at 10:00 UT is: S09W24 (Solar X = 166", Solar Y = -242") 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 Target Dear Collaborators, Solar flare activity continues at an extremely low level. Target region NOAA 2724 and NOAA 2725 (S09W01) are mostly unchanged. 2725 is currently displaying a tiny sunspot pore. If possible, include 2725 within F-O-V. A minor B-class event is possible in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2724 on October 18 at 09:00 UT is: S09W10 (Solar X = 166", Solar Y = -243") 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 Target Dear Collaborators, Solar flare activity continues at an extremely low level. A single tiny sunspot pore in NOAA 2725 (S10E08) is the only sunspot currently on the visible solar disk. The target region, NOAA 2724, is slowly decaying. If possible, include 2725 within the F-O-V. A minor B-class event is possible in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2724 on October 17 at 17:00 UT is: S09W03 (Solar X = 050", Solar Y = -245") 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 visible solar disk is currently spotless. Target plage NOAA 2724 continues to slowly decay. An isolated B-class event is still possible in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 2724 on October 16 at 09:30 UT is: S08E15 (Solar X = -248", Solar Y = -227") 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 very low and is expected to continue at a very low level. Target region NOAA 2724 is slowly decaying and will soon become a spotless plage. There is a slight chance of a B-class event in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 2724 on October 15 at 09:30 UT is: S09E28 (Solar X = -454", Solar Y = -087") 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 2724 is mostly unchanged and was quiescent during the past 24 hours. NOAA 2725 (S08E57) developed a small trailing polarity sunspot becoming a B-type/beta region today. Another B-class event is possible in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2724 on October 14 at 06:00 UT is: S09E44 (Solar X = -662", Solar Y = -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.

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Target region NOAA 2724 produced a B2.3 event at 10/13/13:34 UT. 2724 is maintaining its small leading polarity alpha sunspot but the following region's tiny leading polarity alpha spot is decaying rapidly. 2724 has weak non-spot, mixed plage polarities and currently has an active filament. New region, NOAA 2725 (S09E70) rotated over the east limb yesterday displaying a single leading polarity alpha sunspot. Additional B-class events possible in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2724 on October 13 at 07:45 UT is: S10E56 (Solar X = -787", 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, The target region, now numbered NOAA 2724, was the source of a B2.1 event at 10/12/01:50 UT and a B7.1 event at 10/12/14:08 UT. 2724 appears to be two separate decaying active regions that have merged with weak mixed polarity plage fields. Additional B-class events possible with a slight chance of an isolated C-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 2724 on October 12 at 07:00 UT is: S07E68 (Solar X = -886", Solar Y = -155") 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.
