Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is low. Yesterday's new regions (NOAA 11807 and 11808) have ceased emerging new flux. NOAA 11808 shows evidence for a very small but concentrated polarity separation line in its following portion and the region appears to be destabilising nearby NOAA 11801. However, the overall magnetic complexity and spot area of the two ARs is much less than that of yesterday's target NOAA 11800 and nearby 11805. This AR complex continues to release B- and C-class flares, the largest of which was a C6.3 event from NOAA 11800 on 29-Jul-2013 at 23:18 UT. Since NOAA 11800 has rotated over the limb, the target will now switch to NOAA 11805. Further C-class activity is expected with a chance for an isolated low M-class flare.
The position of NOAA 11805 on 30-Jul-2013 at 17:30 UT is: S06W68, ( 871", -134" )
