MM#009 Default HESSI Target
by Max Millennium Chief Observer 16 Apr '11

16 Apr '11

Dear RHESSI Collaborators, The target region NOAA 11190 was the source of an M1.3 flare yesterday at 17:02 UT, in addition to several C-class events. The region continues to develop in size but has retained a beta magnetic configuration. Further C-level activity expected with chance for another isolated M-class flare. The position of NOAA 11190 on 16-Apr-2011 at 09:30 UT is: N13W32, ( 492", 291" ) 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 low C-level. NOAA 11193 has remained quiescent since the C4.9 flare yesterday. At this time the target region shall revert back to NOAA 11190 which has been the source of numerous high B- and low C-class events over the past 24 hours as it continues to develop. Further intermediate level activity expected. The position of NOAA 11190 on 15-Apr-2011 at 09:30 UT is: N13W20, ( 316", 301" ) 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 elevated with numerous low C-class events occurring over the past 24 hours. The largest of these was a C4.9 at 05:20 UT today from NOAA 11193 which is now on the eastern limb. NOAA 11193 shall be the new target region and is expected to produce further C-level activity. If possible, also include NOAA 11191 in your field of view. The position of NOAA 11193 on 14-Apr-2011 at 09:30 UT is: N17E65, ( -832", 317" ) 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, Activity has increased over the past 24 hours. NOAA 11191 has begun to rotate onto the east limb and so far consists of a large bipolar leading spot. As yet, the trailing spot is difficult to characterize as it has not fully rotated onto the disk yet. NOAA 11190 is at the central meridian and continues to experience flux emergence at its center, now classified as beta gamma. Although both of these regions have, and will continue to produce C class flares, we will select 11190 as today's target, until 11191 rotates further onto the disk. Further C and possibly M class activity possible today. The position of NOAA 11190 on 13-Apr-2011 15:30 UT is: N15E03 ( -48", 340" ) 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, Activity levels have increased slightly with four C class flares in the past 24 hours - two from a region on the east limb and two from the newly numbered NOAA 11190 located in the north east quadrant. This AR is former NOAA 11172 and until yesterday was in its decay phase. There has been significant emerging flux within the center of the region and to the west of it and now contains six sunspots. This will be the target of opportunity today. The position of NOAA 11190 on 12-Apr-2011 15:30 UT is: N12E16 ( -263", 290" ) 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 today. NOAA 11185/11186 produced a number of B class flares yesterday, along with one B9 flare that occurred off the east limb. NOAA 11185, 11186 and 11189 are now magnetically connected, with bright coronal loop structures joining them. These regions will be today's target and there continues to a chance of C class activity. The position of NOAA 11186 on 11-Apr-2011 15:30 UT is: N23W03 ( 46", 464" ) 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, There was a single C1.3 class flare produced yesterday by NOAA 11184, now on the west limb. However, given the longitude of that region, we will continue with NOAA 11186 as our target of choice as it approaches the meridian. This beta classification region is displaying some polarity mixing, though could also be in its decay phase. It is located within ~20' of two other active regions. Their close proximity may result in some activity today although flares above C class are unlikely. The position of NOAA 11186 on 10-Apr-2011 10:30 UT is: N23E12 ( -183", 463" ) 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 continues to remain at low levels. There have been no >B class flares in the past 24 hours. There are a cluster of active regions in the northern hemisphere, just to the east of the meridian, including NOAA 11185, 11186 and now 11189. In the hopes that their reasonably close proximity produces some activity, today's target will continue to be be NOAA 11186, the largest and most easterly AR in the group. The position of NOAA 11186 on 9-Apr-2011 17:30 UT is: N22E27 ( - 403", 442" ) 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 is very low today despite there being five numbered active regions on disk. There is very little possibility of any flaring active above C-class. Todays target will continue to be NOAA 11186 which has not evolved significantly in the past 24 hours. The position of NOAA 11186 on 8-Apr-2011 17:30 UT is: N22E34 ( - 497", 437" ) 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, There were four small C-class flares in the past 24 hours, all of which occurred in regions on or close to the east limb. In the coming days former NOAA 11172/11175 will rotate back onto the disk. These regions, currently on the east limb, produced at least two of the C class flares and one CME in the past 24 hours. In addition, the recently numbered NOAA 11186 is displaying complex magnetic topology and was the source of a number of the recent flares. This will become the target of choice for today with a chance of further C class activity. The position of NOAA 11186 on 7-Apr-2011 at 17:30 UT is: N22E48 ( - 661", 422" ) 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.
