MM#009 Default HESSI Target

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Target region NOAA 1936, S16W29, is mostly unchanged. 1936 was the source of minor C-class activity since the last message. There remains a chance that 1936 could produce an isolated M-class event but a new region located beyond the southeastern limb was the source of a limb occulted C8.8 event at 12/31/11:50 UT. There is currently a large post-flare loop prominence system visible on the southeast limb. The target will switch to the new east limb target today. Additional limb activity is possible in the next 24 - 48 hours.

The approximate position of the target on Dec. 31 at 15:30UT is: S10E90 (Solar X = -961", Solar Y = -169")

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.
