Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
Solar flare activity is at a low level. Over the previous 24 hours, yesterday's target (NOAA 11850) was responsible for B-class activity, but has now rotated over the limb. A new region, designated as NOAA 11855, is rapidly emerging near disk-center (as two simultaneous bipolar flux emergence events). The region shows some evidence for a gamma magnetic classification and contains multiple strong sunspots in a semi-quadrupolar arrangement. B-class activity is expected with a chance for a C-class event.
The position of NOAA 11855 on 1-Oct-2013 at 17:00 UT is:
S13E07, ( -108", -323" )
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.
