MM#009 Default HESSI Target

Dear RHESSI Collaborators,

Target region, now numbered NOAA 1226, was the source of numerous C-class events since the last message. The largest was a C8.3 at 05/28/03:15 UT. The region is currently classified as a D-type sunspot group with a beta magnetic configuration but there is a possible magnetic delta developing in the trailing portion of the region. C-class events expected with a good chance of an M-class event as well. If the delta develops, there is a chance of an M-class event = or > than M5.

The position of NOAA 1226 on May 28 at 10:30 UT is: S18E68 (Solar X = -835", Solar Y = -286")
