MM#009 Default HESSI Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 31 Mar '18

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, NOAA 2703 has significantly decayed since the last message. 2703 was the source of a long-duration B7.1 event at 03/31/09:11 UT. The event was associated with a filament eruption. B-class events possible in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 2703 on March 31 at 14:30 UT is: S09E55 (Solar X = 779", 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, The target region is now numbered NOAA 2703. 2703 switched into growth phase developing new opposite polarity flux on the southern edge of its leader sunspot. 2703 was the source of several B-class events and an isolated C4.6 event at 03/30/08:01 UT. B-class activity probable with the chance of an isolated C-class event in the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 2703 on March 30 at 11:30 UT is: S09E69 (Solar X = -887", Solar Y = -110") 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 has now rotated into view. It is currently displaying an alpha magnetic configuration with a single leader sunspot. A prominence located near the target region became destabilized and erupted around 19:50 - 21:46 UT yesterday. There is a slight chance of B-class event activity during the next 24 hour period. The position of the target region on March 29 at 14:30 UT is: S09E85 (Solar X = -946", Solar Y = -140") 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 visible solar disk continues to be spotless and plageless. The target filament is very faint and has mostly disappeared since the last message. The target will switch to a region located beyond the southeastern limb. This region is in the location of the third rotation of old NOAA 2699. The region is currently producing a few minor limb surges. No significant solar flare events expected in the next 24 hours but an isolated B-class event is possible. The position of the target region on March 28 at 13:30 UT is: S09E90 (Solar X = -950", Solar Y = -149") 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 visible solar disk is spotless and plageless. The filament target disappeared during the past 24 hour period. The new filament target is located in the northeastern quadrant. No significant solar activity is expected anytime soon. The position of the filament target on March 27 at 07:30 UT is: N27E38 (Solar X = -529", Solar Y = 515") 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 visible solar disk is spotless and plageless. One section of the twin filament target has disappeared. No change in the quiescent state of solar flare activity is expected anytime soon. The position of the filament target on March 26 at 07:00 UT is: S33W08 (Solar X = 113", Solar Y = -427") 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 visible solar disk remains spotless and quiescent. The target region for the next 24 hours shall be the pair of small filaments in the southeast quadrant. No change in activity is expected. The approximate position of the target region on 25-Mar-2018 at 13:30 UT is: S30E16, ( -236", -384" ) 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 visible solar disk remains spotless with X-ray flux remaining steady at the low A-level. The filament in the northwest quadrant is no longer visible so the target will switch to the filament in the southeast quadrant. No change in activity expected over the next 24 hours. The approximate position of the target region on 24-Mar-2018 at 16:30 UT is: S33E14, ( -193", -428" ) 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 extremely low levels. The visible solar disk remains spotless. The filament in the northwest quadrant shall continue to be the target region. No change in activity is expected over the next 24 hours. The approximate position of the target on 23-Mar-2018 at 16:30 UT is: N45W64, ( 613", 712" ) 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, NOAA 12702 has now rotated over the western limb, leaving the visible solar disk spotless. The new target region shall be the filament/prominence feature in the northwest quadrant. No activity expected at this time. The approximate position of the target region on 22-Mar-2018 at 16:30 UT is: N50W64, ( 557", 765" ) 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.
