MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 2353 was the source of a C2.3 event
at 05/23/17:39 UT. 2353 decayed following the C-class
event losing its beta-gamma magnetic configuration.
The background x-ray flux is currently at a low B1.8 level.
Another C-class event is possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2353 on May 24 at 15:35 UT is:
N07W27 (Solar X = 428", Solar Y = 139")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region 2352, N05E01, has decayed significantly.
Recently emerged NOAA 2353 will become the new target.
2353 has developed a D-type sunspot group with a
beta-gamma magnetic configuration. There is a possibility
of a small delta configuration forming within the intermediate
portion of the region. 2353 was the source of two minor
C-class events today. C-class events are probable in the
next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2353 on May 23 at 11:35 UT is:
N07W10 (Solar X = 163", Solar Y = 144")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity continues very low. The background
x-ray flux is currently at the B2.2 level. The target region, now
numbered NOAA 2352, has a few small spots with
mixed polarities. No significant solar flare activity expected
during the next 24 hours. An active filament located at N15E01
slowly disappeared early UT today.
The position of NOAA 2352 on May 22 at 10:45 UT is:
N06E18 (Solar X = -293", Solar Y = 129")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity continues to be very low. The
current background x-ray flux is at the B2.2 level.
Target region, NOAA 2351 has decayed significantly.
The new target is an EFR located in the northeastern
quadrant. No noteworthy solar flare activity is expected
in the next 24 hours.
The position of the target on May 21 at 14:45 UT is:
N06E30 (Solar X = -473", Solar Y = 128")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is at very low levels. The background
x-ray flux is currently at the B2.7 level. The target region,
now numbered NOAA 2351, was the source of two minor
C-class events since the last message. No significant
flare activity expected anytime soon.
The position of NOAA 2351 on May 20 at 11:35 UT is:
N22E42 (Solar X = -589", Solar Y = 379")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 2339 has completed west limb passage.
The new target is an unnumbered region located in the
northeastern quadrant. The region was the source of the
largest event since the last message (C2.3 at 05/19/11:59 UT).
The region has a cluster of tiny spots with minor mixed polarities.
Another C-class event is possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of the target on May 19 at 12:00 UT is:
N22E55 (Solar X = -722", Solar Y 375")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity continues at a very low level. The
background x-ray flux is currently at the B4 level. The
largest event since the last message was a C1.1 produced
by NOAA 2339 at 05/18/08:21 UT. No significant flare
activity is expected during the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 2339 on May 18 at 11:35 UT is:
N12W87 (Solar X = 926", Solar Y =198")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is at a very low level. The background
x-ray flux is currently flat at the B5 level. NOAA 2339 is
mostly unchanged and is now rotating over the west limb.
A C-class event is possible in the next 24 hours. An isolated
M-class event is unlikely.
The position of NOAA 2339 on May 17 at 11:35 UT is:
N11W79 (Solar X = 914", Solar Y = 188")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 2339 is mostly unchanged and continues to produce
minor C-class events. The largest was a C2.5 event at
05/15/23:29 UT. Additional C-class activity is expected again
in the next 24 hours with only a slight chance of an isolated
M-class event.
The position of NOAA 2339 on May 16 at 11:35 UT is:
N12W66 (Solar X = 849", Solar Y = 214")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region, NOAA 2339, has lost magnetic complexity
and is now classified as an F-type/beta region but it is
displaying penumbral growth within its trailing polarity portion.
2339 was the source of several C-class events since the last
message. The largest was a C4.8 at 05/14/17:53 UT.
Additional C-class events probable with only a slight chance
of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 2339 on May 15 at 15:35 UT is:
N11W54 (Solar X = 755", Solar Y = 206")
