MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The target region was the source of 10 B-class events and a C1.1
event at 01/15/14:19 UT. Bright plage and a leader sunspot are now visible
on the NE limb. The region is still too close to the limb to ascertain
its magnetic complexity. Another C-class event probable today
with even a slight chance of a low-level M-class event in the next
few days.
The position of the target on January 15 Â at 11:00 UT is:
N24E85 (Solar X = -888", Solar Y = 402")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is increasing. A region located just behind
the NE limb was the source of two C-class events with associated CMEs.
This active region was also the source of a large CME on January 13.
The largest C-class event was a C1.6 at 01/14/03:30 UT.
Another C-class event is possible today.
The approximate position of the target on January 14Â at 15:00 UT is:
N23E88 (Solar X = -898", Solar Y = 383")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region, NOAA 1140, was the source of a few B-class
events since the last message. The largest was a
B3.4 at 01/13/09:19 UT. 1140 has now completed west limb
passage. The visible solar disk is very quiet. The only region
with spots is the new target (NOAA 1146). Solar flare activity is
expected to be very low today.
The position of NOAA 1146 on January 13Â at 17:30 UT is:
N24E09 (Solar X = -139", Solar Y = 464")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is very low. The target region is now located
on the west limb. Minor B-class activity is possible today.
The position of NOAA 1140Â on January 12 at 16:00 UT is:
N33W83 (Solar X = 811", Solar Y = 537")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
NOAA 1140 added a few sunspots located in its trailing
polarity portion. Low-level B-class events probable today.
The position of NOAA 1140Â on January 11 at 14:00 UT is:
N32W69 (Solar X = 772", Solar Y = 537")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Target region, NOAA 1140, produced a few B-class events
since the last message. The largest B-class event was a
B4.6 at 01/10/10:28 UT. Additional B-class events are probable today.
The position of NOAA 1140Â on January 10Â at 16:30 UT is:
N32W58 (Solar X = 702", Solar Y = 547")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity remains at a very low level. The target
region, NOAA 1140, produced a minor B1.3 event at
01/09/13:51 UT. 1140 has decayed somewhat
within its trailing polarity portion. Solar flare activity
is expected to continue at very low levels.
A B-class event is still possible today.
The position of NOAA 1140Â on January 9 at 17:30 UT is:
N33W46 (Solar X = 589", Solar Y = 570")

MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is low. NOAA 1139 (S27W84) produced a B2.5
event at 01/08/09:23 UT. Target region 1142 (S14W55) continues
to decay. We'll switch to new target NOAA 1140. 1140 has an
unusual E-W magnetic inversion line with small positive polarity
trailer spots located north of its large negative polarity leader sunspot.
Solar flare activity is expected to remain at a low level.
A B-class event is possible today.
The position of NOAA 1140Â on January 8Â at 17:30 UT is:
N33W34 (Solar X = 458", Solar Y = 577")

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar flare activity is very low. NOAA region 11142 has
maintained area coverage and a beta magnetic classification despite
halving in number of spots. This region remains bright in H-alpha and
UV plage emission. B-class activity is probable.
The position of NOAA 11142 on 7-Jan-2011 at 10:30 UT is:
S14W38, ( 582", -188" )
