MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is at moderate levels. There are three active regions currently on the visible solar disk with the potential to produce M-class activity. Target region, NOAA 1164, is maintaining its beta-gamma-delta magnetic classification. In addition to NOAA 1164, a new region that emerged on March 03 located just north of NOAA 1165 at S18W58 is the source of numerous C-class events. This region has a circle of small spots with mixed polarities. NOAA 1166 (N10E34) has developed some magnetic complexity and is producing C-class events. All three regions are capable of producing an M-class event. 1164 has a slight chance of producing an isolated M5 or larger event in the next few days.
The position of NOAA 1164 on March 06 at 11:30 UT is: N24W41 (Solar X = 581", Solar Y = 475")
