MM#009 Default HESSI Target
Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
There was a very impressive filament eruption in the SE quadrant since the last message. The eruption was associated with a large double-ribbon flare, a large bright and fast CME and a long-duration C8.4 x-ray event at 08/31/20:43 UT. Target region, NOAA 1560, is mostly unchanged maintaining a D-type/beta-gamma sunspot group. A C-class event is possible in the next 24 hour period.
The position of NOAA 1560 on September 01 at 13:00 UT is: N04E01 (Solar X = -016", Solar Y = -053")
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.
