MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 1363 has decayed slightly losing its magnetic delta
configuration but it retains its beta-gamma classification
with an E-type sunspot group. Despite its complex magnetic
configuration and large size, 1363 has been unable to
produce a single M-class event. C-class activity probable
with a slight chance of an M-class event in the next 24 hour
period.
The position of NOAA 1363 on December 05 at 14:00 UT is:
S23W01 (Solar X = 015", Solar Y = -387")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 1363 developed a weak magnetic delta configuration located
in the intermediate portion of its sunspot group. 1363 is
currently classified as an E-type/beta-gamma-delta region.
It was the source of only C-class activity in the past 24 hours.
The largest C-class event (C4.8 at 12/04/16:15 UT) was produced
by NOAA 1362, N08W15. C-class events probable with a chance
of an M-class event in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 1363 on December 04 at 13:00 UT is:
S23E13 (Solar X = -202", Solar Y = -389")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 1363 continues in growth phase increasing
sunspot count, sunspot area, and now magnetic complexity.
1363 is now classified as an E-type/beta-gamma region and
it appears that a magnetic delta configuration might be developing.
1363 has only produced C-class activity in the past few days
but there is now an increasing chance of an M-class event.
If a strong delta configuration develops, there is a chance of
an M-class event = or >M5.
The position of NOAA 1363 on December 03 at 16:00 UT is:
S23E24 (Solar X = -366", Solar Y = -390")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 1363 increased its sunspot area and
count significantly in the past 24 hours. The region is still
classified as a D-type/beta region but further development
may result in increased magnetic complexity.
C-class activity probable with a slight chance of an isolated
M-class event in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 1363 on December 02 at 13:30 UT is:
S23E38 (Solar X = -553", Solar Y = -391")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
There are a few regions on the visible disk with the potential
to produce C-class events. Target region NOAA 1361 is mostly
unchanged and quiet in the past 24 hours. We'll switch to
NOAA 1363 located in the southeast quadrant. 1363 is currently
a D-type/beta region. A C-class event is possible in the next 24
hour period.
The position of NOAA 1363 0n December 01 at 13:30 UT is:
S23E52 (Solar X = -708", Solar Y = -390")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 1361 is mostly unchanged maintaining a D-type
sunspot group with minor polarity mixing. A C-class
event is possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 1361 on November 30 at 15:45 UT is:
N18W02 (Solar X = 032", Solar Y = 285")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
There were several C-class events in the past 24 hours.
The largest, a C3.2 at 11/28/18:30 UT, was produced
by NOAA 1261. 1261 has slowed development and is
currently classified as a D-type/beta region. C-class
activity possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 1361 on November 29 at 15:45 UT is:
N18E12 (Solar X = -193", Solar Y = 284")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Recently emerged NOAA 1361 has developed rapidly in
the past 24 hours and is showing signs of developing
magnetic complexity. It is currently a D-type/beta-gamma
region. The target will switch from 1356/1360 to 1361
for at least the next 24 hour period. C-class events
probable.
The position of NOAA 1361 on November 28 at 16:30 UT is:
N19E24 (Solar X = -375", Solar Y = 299")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region NOAA 1356 continues in decay phase.
The target will slightly change pointing to include NOAA
1360 located just to the east of 1356. 1356 is an
E-type/beta-gamma region and 1360 is classified C-type/beta.
This area has an interesting system of active region
filaments. C-class events possible.
Note: The C4.9 event and associated filament eruption reported
yesterday was an error in event detection software and was not
a real event.
The position of NOAA 1356/1360 on November 27 at 08:00 UT is:
N18W10 (Solar X = 161", Solar Y = 279")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The largest event in the past 24 hours was a C4.9
at 11/26/08:24 UT. The source was a large filament
eruption. The filament center was located in the trailing
portion of target region NOAA 1356. 1356 continues in
slow decay but is maintaining its E-type/beta-gamma
sunspot group. A C-class event is possible in the
next 24 hour period. There is only a slight
chance of a low-level M-class event.
The position of NOAA 1356 on November 26 at 16:45 UT is:
N16W07 (Solar X = 114", Solar Y 244")
