Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The sunspots have returned back. There are currently two
active regions with sunspots on the visible disk. The target
region, now designated as NOAA 12559, was the source of
a long duration event (a B3.7 flare at 19:10 UT on July 5)
accompanied by a wide CME. 12559 was classified as a
B-type/beta magnetic configuration. There are still some
filaments hanging above this region. Some low level activities
are likely in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12559 on July 6 at 20:30 UT is:
N10W32 (494", 115")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The GOES soft X-ray flux has been flat at the ~B1 level.
The target region did not produce any noteworthy events
in the past 24 hours with the filaments still hanging there.
No significant flare activities are expected in the following
24 hours.
The position of the target on July 5 at 19:00 UT is:
N16W27 (450", 220")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at an extremely low level with the GOES soft
X-ray flux flat at the ~A9 level. The visible solar disk remains
spotless. The target region, associated with a few activated
filaments in the northeast and southwest, produced several
~B1 events since the last message. Only very minor activities
are possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of the target on July 4 at 18:30 UT is:
N16W20 (350", 220")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The target region's filament located along its magnetic
inversion line became activated and erupted which gave
rise to a small two-strand flare with an associated minor
B1.6 event at 07/03/09:58. The target region continues
to display a few "micropores". No significant solar flare
activity expected anytime soon.
The position of the target on July 03 at 13:30 UT is:
N16W05 (Solar X = 079", Solar Y = 211")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is extremely low. The background
x-ray flux is currently flat at the A5.9 level. The target
region has developed a few tiny sunspot pores
(visible only on images having the very best resolution).
No significant solar flare activity expected anytime soon.
The position of the target on July 02 at 13:45 UT is:
N16E09 (Solar X = -143", Solar Y = 213")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is extremely low. The background
x-ray flux is currently flat at the A5.2 level. The tiny EFR
(S17E40) has decayed. The visible solar disk is now
spotless again. The target plage is stable and quiescent.
No noteworthy solar flare events expected anytime soon.
The position of the target on July 01 at 13:45 UT is:
N16E28 (Solar X = -356", Solar Y = 218")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity continues very low. The target plage's
tiny sunspot pores have decayed. A small portion of a filament
located northeast of the target has disappeared most likely
by slow dissolution. There is currently a tiny EFR with a two
spot B-type/beta sunspot group located at S17E53. No
significant solar flare activity expected but there is a
possibility of filament activation/eruption in the next
24-48 hours.
The position of the target on June 30 at 13:45 UT is:
N16E36 (Solar X = -535", Solar Y = 224")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The prominence target had an activation phase yesterday
but is currently quiescent. The target will switch to an area
of enhanced plage where there are several sunspot pores.
No significant solar flare activity expected anytime soon but
it is possible that one of the large filaments located in the
northeastern quadrant may became active and/or eruptive
in the next 24 to 48 hours.
The position of the target on June 29 at 10:45 UT is:
N16E50 (Solar X = -697", Solar Y = 233")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is extremely low. No events since the
last message. The background x-ray flux is currently flat
at the A6.1 level. There is a tiny pore in the plage located
at N16E57. The target plage has significantly decayed.
The target will switch to an active prominence located on
the northeastern limb. No noteworthy solar flare activity
expected but there is a slight chance that the activated
prominence may become eruptive during the next
24 hour period.
The approximate position of the target on June 28 at 07:00 UT is:
N16E90 (Solar X = -907", Solar Y = 260")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The visible solar disk continues to be spotless.
The spotless target plage was the source of minor
B-class events since the last message. The largest
was a B5.8 at 06/27/09:58 UT. B-class activity is
possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of the target on June 27 at 13.45 UT is:
N13E37 (Solar X = -556", Solar Y = 181")
