MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The x-ray background flux is at the B4 level. NOAA regions 1610,1613,1614, and 1615 all produced C-class events since the last message. The target region (NOAA 1613) added a few tiny spots. 1613 has a C-type sunspot group with a beta-gamma magnetic configuration. A region in advanced decay phase located at N09E63 has a reversed polarity A-type/alpha sunspot group with mixed non-spot polarities. Target region 1613 and all of the other above mentioned regions are capable of producing a C-class event in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 1613 on November 17 at 14:00 UT is: S23W13 (Solar X = 201", Solar Y = -418")
