MM#009 Default HESSI Targe
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 30 Aug '18

30 Aug '18

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Solar activity remains extremely low. NOAA 12720 has now rotated over the western limb and the visible disk is currently spotless. A new region, displaying bright EUV emission, appears to be rotating over the North East limb and will be the new target. No significant flaring activity is expected over the next 24-hour period. The approximate position of this region on 30-Aug-2018 at 20:00 UT is: N05E90, ( -946", 82" ) 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 remains extremely low. NOAA 12720 is currently rotating over the western limb and is designated as an alpha/A-type sunspot group. The GOES soft X-ray flux has remained steady at background level since the last message. No significant change in activity is expected over the next 24-hour period. The position of NOAA 12720 on 29-Aug-2018 at 18:00 UT is: N07W90, ( 942", 115" ) 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 an extremely low level. NOAA 12720 is now rotating onto the West limb and is currently designated as an alpha/H-type sunspot group. No flares have occurred since the last message. No increase in flaring activity is expected over the next 24-hour period. The position of NOAA 12720 on 28-Aug-2018 at 18:00 UT is: N08W78, ( 920", 107" ) 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 extremely low. NOAA 12720 has decayed slightly to be designated a beta/C-type sunspot group and has remained quiescent since the last message. No significant flaring activity is expected over the next 24-hour period. The position of NOAA 12720 on 27-Aug-2018 at 18:00 UT is: N08W66, ( 861", 84" ) 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 a very low level. NOAA region 12719 continued in its decay while NOAA 12720 has retained its beta/D-type sunspot group designation. 12720 continued to produce B-class flares after the last message, the largest being a B1.9 event on 25-Aug-2018 at 21:24 UT. B-class flares are probable over the following 24 hours. The position of NOAA 12720 on 26-Aug-2018 at 18:00 UT is: N08W49, ( 711", 55" ) 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 extremely low. NOAA region 12719 decayed further and is now classified as a beta/C-type sunspot group. The target region has been designated as NOAA 12720 with a beta/D-type sunspot group classification. This region was the source of several B-class flares since the last message, the largest being a B4.1 event on 25-Aug-2018 at 10:48 UT. Further B-class activity is expected in the next 24-hour period. The position of NOAA 12720 on 25-Aug-2018 at 12:30 UT is: N08W31, ( 485", 32" ) 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 extremely low. NOAA 12719 increased in magnetic complexity since the last message to be designated as a beta-gamma/C-type sunspot group, but appears to have begun decaying. A new spot region has also emerged as a bipolar magnetic structure with possible mixing in its interior portion. No significant flares have occurred since the last message. B-class flares may be possible over the following 24 hours, due to the new region's speed of flux emergence. The approximate position of this region on 24-Aug-2018 at 21:30 UT is: N08W22, ( 353", 25" ) 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 an extremely low level. NOAA 12719 has emerged some small spots and is designated as an alpha/A-type sunspot group. No significant flares have occurred since the last message and there is no increase in flare activity expected in the next 24-hour period. The position of NOAA 12719 on 23-Aug-2018 at 12:30 UT is: S06W04, ( 65", -214" ) 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 extremely low. NOAA 12719 has decayed to plage, leaving the solar disk spotless. No significant flares have occurred since the last message and no increase in flare activity is expected in the following 24 hours. The approximate position of this region on 22-Aug-2018 at 16:30 UT is: S12E06, ( -96", -309" ) 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 an extremely low level. NOAA region 12719 has decayed slightly since the last message, remaining designated as a beta/B-type sunspot group. No significant flares have occurred in the past 24 hours and no increase in flaring activity is expected in the next 24-hour period. The position of NOAA 12719 on 21-Aug-2018 at 16:30 UT is: S07E20, ( -321", -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.
