MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is very low. The background x-ray flux
is currently at the B1.6 level. The largest reported event
was a B2.7 at 03/06/18:04 UT produced by target region
NOAA 2512. 2512 is now decaying (especially within the
trailing portion) after displaying flux emergence yesterday.
Another B-class event possible in the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 2512 on March 07 at 15:35 UT is:
N11W39 (Solar X = 598", Solar Y = 276")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is very low. NOAA 12514 grew marginally
in spot area over the previous 24 hours, but remained a beta/C-type
sunspot group. NOAA 12512 initially decreased in magnetic complexity
over the same period (to an alpha/H-type sunspot group class), but
recently showed signs of flux emergence. This region has produced 6
B-class flares since the last message, including the largest event
of the period (a B7.2 on 6-Mar-2016 at 04:58 UT). B-class activity
is expected over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12512 on 6-Mar-2016 at 22:00 UT is:
N11W28, ( 449", 290" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a very low level. Previous target region NOAA
12510 has again remained stable and is classified as a beta/C-type
sunspot group. NOAA 12514 is one of three regions to be numbered in
the past 24 hours and is classified as a beta/C-type sunspot group.
B-class flares are expected over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12514 on 5-Mar-2016 at 22:00 UT is:
N14W23, ( 370", 342" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is at a low level. NOAA region 12506 was
the source of the largest flare of the period (a C1.1 on 4-Mar-2016
at 08:28 UT), but is now classified as an alpha/H-type sunspot group
as it rotates towards the South West limb. Target region NOAA 12510
has remained stable and continues to be classified as a beta/C-type
sunspot group. B-class flares are expected over the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12510 on 4-Mar-2016 at 17:30 UT is:
N05E33, ( -531", 186" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity has continued at a very low level. The target region
has been numbered as NOAA 12510, and is confirmed as a beta/C-type
sunspot group designation. 12510 was the source of a B4.6 flare on
3-Mar-2016 at 01:36 UT that was the only flaring activity since the
last message. Additional B-class flares are expected over the next
24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12510 on 3-Mar-2016 at 14:30 UT is:
N05E43, ( -659", 173" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity continues to be very low. Yesterday's
target region that rotated over the North East limb has remained
unnumbered, but appears to be a beta/C-type sunspot group class.
All spotted regions on disk have remained flare quiet since the
last message. B-class flares are probable over the following 24
hours.
The approximate position of this region on 2-Mar-2016 at 21:30 UT is:
N05E52, ( -762", 159" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a very low level. NOAA 12506 has decayed over
the past 24 hours and has been classified as a beta/D-type sunspot
group. The majority of the flaring activity since the last message
came from a region currently rotating over the North East limb -
the return of the region previously numbered as NOAA 12497. This
region produced the largest event of the period - a B6.2 flare on
1-Mar-2016 at 00:46 UT. More B-class flares are expected over the
next 24 hours, with a chance for a low-to-mid C-class flare.
The approximate position of this region on 1-Mar-2016 at 23:30 UT is:
N04E77, ( -941", 95" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity continues to be low. NOAA 12506 grew
somewhat over the previous 24 hours, increasing in spot area and
longitudinal extent. As a result NOAA 12506 is now classified as
a beta-gamma/D-type sunspot group. This region was the source of
the largest flare since the last message - a B6.9 on 29-Feb-2016
at 04:19 UT. More B-class flares are expected over the following
24 hours, with a chance for another low C-class flare.
The position of NOAA 12506 on 29-Feb-2016 at 15:00 UT is:
S05W15, ( 256", 33" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar activity is at a low level. NOAA region 12506 continued to
grow over the past 24 hours, increasing in spot area, number of
spots, and in longitudinal extent. This region is now classified
as a beta/D-type sunspot group. 12506 produced 3 B-class flares
since the last message, including the largest magnitude event of
the period (a B4.5 on 28-Feb-2016 at 06:30 UT). Further B-class
activity is expected over the following 24 hours, with a chance
for an additional low C-class flare.
The position of NOAA 12506 on 28-Feb-2016 at 21:30 UT is:
S06W04, ( 66", 20" )

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity remains low. NOAA 12506 grew somewhat
in the past 24 hours, primarily in number of intermediate spots.
This region continues to be classified as a beta/C-type sunspot
group and since the last message has produced four B-class flares
and a C3.3 flare on 27-Feb-2016 at 05:44 UT. More B-class activity
is expected over the next 24 hours, with a good chance for further
low C-class flares.
The position of NOAA 12506 on 27-Feb-2016 at 23:30 UT is:
S07E09, ( -151", 2" )
