Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is very low. NOAA region 11628 has experienced magnetic flux emergence and developed new spots in the past 24 hours. This includes positive magnetic flux to the north of the negative polarity leading plage. This region has a compact set of bright EUV coronal loops, and was the source of 3 B-class events since yesterday's email, the largest being a B9.5 flare on 8-Dec-2012 at 04:20 UT. More B-class activity is expected, with a good chance for C-class events.
The position of NOAA 11628 on 8-Dec-2012 at 14:00 UT is:
N09E29, ( -472", 155" )
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.
