MM#009 Default HESSI Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 31 Oct '11

31 Oct '11

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, Yesterday's target region (NOAA 11330) has continued to decrease in both size and number of spots. A new and currently unnumbered region has rotated over the North-East limb, producing an M1.1 flare on 31-Oct-2011 at 14:55 UT. Proximity to the limb prevents accurate determination of its magnetic classification, but the region is bipolar. C-class activity is expected, with a chance for another M-class event. The approximate position of this region on 31-Oct-2011 at 16:30 UT is: N18E71, ( -869", 275" ) 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 flare activity remains low. Target region NOAA 11330 has maintained its number of spots and decreased in area. This region was the source of a C2.5 flare on 30-Oct-2011 at 09:11 UT, and is now classified as an F-type/beta-gamma sunspot group. Continued C-class activity is possible, with a small chance for an M-class event. The position of NOAA 11330 on 30-Oct-2011 at 14:00 UT is: N07W30, ( 478", 51" ) 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 remains at a low level. Target region NOAA 11330 has increased in number of spots and marginally decreased in area, while retaining an E-type/beta-gamma sunspot group classification. Most of these changes are due to the decay of the trailing spot group. C-class activity is possible, with a slight chance of an M-class event if opposite polarity flux continues emerging on the North-East edge of the primary leading spot. The position of NOAA 11330 on 29-Oct-2011 at 14:00 UT is: N04W17, ( 279", -8" ) 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, Target region NOAA 1330 has new opposite polarity flux emerging just to the northeast of its large leader sunspot. The region's sunspot group is now classified E-type/beta-gamma. If development continues, it could result in M-class activity. Former target NOAA 1324 (N21W61) has switched from decay phase to growth phase and was the source of two C-class events. Recently emerged NOAA 1333 (N16E03) has a beta-gamma magnetic configuration with the potential to produce C-class events. Target region 1330 is expected to produce C-class activity with the chance of M-class activity if development continues. The position of NOAA 1330 on October 28 at 15:45 UT is: N08W04 (Solar X = 066", Solar Y = 055") 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, Solar flare activity continues at a very low level. NOAA 1330 is mostly unchanged maintaining some mixed polarity. C-class event possible with a slight chance of an isolated M-class event ion the next 24 hour period. The position of NOAA 1330 on October 27 at 15:30 UT is: N09E09 (Solar X = -149", Solar Y = 071") 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 1324 was the source of a C1.2 event at 10/26/10:01 UT. 1324 has experienced significant decay but still could produce another C-class event. The target will switch to the large sunspot in the northeast (NOAA 1330). 1330 has developed a few new small sunspots in the past 24 hours. C-class events possible with a very slight chance of an isolated M-class event. The position of NOAA 1330 on October 26 at 15:45 UT is: N08E22 (Solar X = -359", Solar Y = 057") 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, Solar flare activity is currently at a very low level. NOAA 1324 is mostly unchanged since the last message. There is a chance of a C-class event from target region 1324 and/or NOAA 1330 (N08E35). The position of NOAA 1324 on October 25 at 16:15 UT is: N12W23 (Solar X = 370", Solar Y = 124") 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 1324 is slowly decaying but still maintaining its beta-gamma magnetic configuration. C-class events possible with a very slight chance of an isolated M-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 1324 on October 24 at 16:45 UT is: N12W10 (Solar X = 164", Solar Y = 117") 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 1324 has continued in slow decay phase but is still an E-type/beta-gamma region. C-class events possible with a slight chance of an M-class event in the next 24 hours. The position of NOAA 1324 on October 23 at 16:15 UT is: N10E04 (Solar X = -066", Solar Y = 081") 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 1324 has decayed slightly but it still maintains an E-type/beta-gamma sunspot group. The largest event in the past 24 hours was a long-duration M1.3 at 10/22/11:10 UT. Its source region was again beyond the northwest limb located in the vicinity of NOAA 1314 at N27. Target region 1324 should continue to produce C-class events with a slight possibility of an isolated M-class event. The position of NOAA 1324 on October 22 at 17:15 UT is: N10E17 (Solar X = -278", Solar Y = 083") 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.
