MM#009 Default HESSI Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 09 Nov '11

09 Nov '11

MM#009 Default HESSI Target Dear RHESSI Collaborators, The largest event in the past 24 hour period was an M1.1 at 11/09/13:35 UT. Its source was a large filament eruption located in the northeast near NOAA regions 1342 and 1343. Target region NOAA 1339 has significantly decayed especially in magnetic complexity. It now appears to be classified an F-type/beta region. C-class events possible with a chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 1339 on November 09 at 17:15 UT is: N19W18 (Solar X = 284", Solar Y = 262") 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, NOAA 1339 continues to be a source of C-class activity. 1339 is maintaining its large and magnetically complex F-type/beta-gamma-delta classification but is not very bright or dynamic in H-alpha images. Continued C-class events are certain with a chance of an M-class event with even a possibility of an M-class event = or > M5. The position of NOAA 1339 on November 08 at 16:30 UT is: N19W05 (Solar X = 080", Solar Y = 258") 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, Target region NOAA 11339 has continued to evolve, maintaining area and increasing in number of spots. This region has been reclassified as an F-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group and has continued to produce C-class activity. A good chance still remains for more M-class events, with a small chance of an X-class flare. The position of NOAA 11339 on 7-Nov-2011 at 13:30 UT is: N20E13, ( -200", 274" ) 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 region 11339 has shown initial signs of decaying with losing a few spots and decreasing in area. This region is now classified as an E-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group and has been the source of 3 M-class events since yesterday's message. However, the resulting flare magnitudes are generally decreasing (the largest being an M1.8 on 5-Nov-2011 at 20:31 UT) so we are ending the Major Flare Watch campaign. A good chance remains for further M-class events, with a small chance of a low X-class flare. The position of NOAA 11339 on 6-Nov-2011 at 17:00 UT is: N19E22, ( -340", 259" ) 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#003 Major Flare Watch
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 05 Nov '11

05 Nov '11

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, NOAA 11339 has continued to be flare productive and has grown in area and number of spots, evolving into an F-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group classification. This region has produced three M-class events in the past 24 hours, the largest being an M3.7 flare on 5-Nov-2011 at 03:08 UT. The Major Flare Watch campaign remains in place as this region has the potential to produce another >M5 flare in the next 24 hours, particularly if further growth and/or flux emergence occurs. The position of NOAA 11339 on 5-Nov-2011 at 14:30 UT is: N19E37, ( -553", 265" ) 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#003 Major Flare Watch
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, The Major Flare Watch campaign will remain in effect as target region NOAA 11339 is now classed as an E-type/beta-gamma-delta sunspot group. This region has continued to produce M-class activity (an M2.1 flare on 3-Nov-2011 at 23:28 UT) since the X1.9 flare on 3-Nov-2011 at 20:16 UT. NOAA 11339 has the potential to produce another >=M5 event in the next few days. The position of NOAA 11339 on 4-Nov-2011 at 13:00 UT is: N18E50, ( -705", 257" ) 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#003 Major Flare Watch
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 03 Nov '11

03 Nov '11

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Today's target region NOAA 11339 produced an X1.9 flare on 3-Nov-2011 at 20:16 UT. We are now implementing a Major Flare Watch campaign as there is a good chance for an additional >M5 flare in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 11339 on 3-Nov-2011 at 22:00 UT is: N18E51, ( -716", 257" ) 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 region 11339 continues to be flare productive as it rotates onto the solar disk. This region is now classified as a D-type/beta-gamma sunspot group, producing 2 M-class events in the past 24 hours (an M4.3 flare on 2-Nov-2011 at 21:52 UT and an M2.5 flare on 3-Nov-2011 at 10:58 UT). C-class activity is expected and further M-class events are possible, with a slight chance for an X-class event. The position of NOAA 11339 on 3-Nov-2011 at 12:00 UT is: N18E56, ( -768", 262" ) 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 previously unnumbered region rotating over the North-East limb is now designated as NOAA 11339. This region has produced several C-class events since yesterday's email, the largest being a C5.1 flare on 2-Nov-2011 at 02:45 UT. Proximity to the limb prevents an accurate magnetic classification, although the region is bipolar. Further C-class activity is expected, with a slight chance for an M-class event. The position of NOAA 11339 on 2-Nov-2011 at 13:30 UT is: N22E64, ( -805", 332" ) 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 flare activity is at a moderate level. The region rotating over the North-East limb was the source of a second M-class event (M1.4) on 31-Oct-2011 at 17:21 UT. Continued C-class activity is expected, with a chance for another M-class event. The approximate position of this region on 1-Nov-2011 at 17:30 UT is: N20E77, ( -886", 315" ) 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.
