Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has slightly increased since the last message. The largest event in the period was a C6.7 flare at 18:40 UT yesterday, attributed to the target region NOAA 13500. However, another flare at the same time, caused by a filament eruption located to the west of NOAA 13503, also contributed to the soft X-ray flux. NOAA 13500 was downgraded to a beta-gamma magnetic configuration but is still experiencing the emergence of new magnetic fluxes. It shall remain as the default target region for an additional 24 hours, with further C-class flares likely.
The position of NOAA 13500 on 28-Nov-2023 at 12:30 UT is:
