No. 237, "The Balmer continuum observed from IRIS!" by Petr Heinzel and Lucia Kleint. For the first time we have clear and direct observations of the Balmer continuum, from space.
No. 236, "Energy goes up... but doesn't come back down! Coronal heating?" by Brian Welsch. The Poynting flux responsible for coronal heating may have been spotted.
No. 235, "Which detectors can I use to analyze this flare?" by Brian Dennis and Kim Tolbert. A new Browser feature helps to answer this question.
No. 234, "RHESSI resumes observations," by Albert Shih and Sa"m Krucker. Back to normal, the anneal was a success.
See

listing the current series, 2008-present, and
http://sprg.ssl.berkeley.edu/~tohban/nuggets/
for the original series, 2005-2008.
We publish these at roughly two-week intervals and welcome contributions,
which should be related, at least loosely, to RHESSI science.

1. NEW COORDINATED FLARE OBSERVING PLAN
From Ryan Milligan <r.milligan (at) qub.ac.uk>
In October 2014, the Dunn Solar Telescope (DST) of NSO will
conduct a full month of Service Mode Operations dedicated to
observations of solar flares. The campaign shall utilize the full
suite of instruments at the DST (ROSA, IBIS, and FIRS), and will
be supported by SDO, Hinode, IRIS, and RHESSI when possible. The
Max Millennium Chief Observers have therefore formulated a new
Max Millennium Observing Plan (MM_OP) - MM#020 DST Service Mode
Support - that will be implemented throughout October (and future
Service Modes) whenever solar activity is at moderate levels and
seeing conditions at the DST are favorable. The specific observing
plans for each instrument for this and other MM_OPs can be found at
http://solar.physics.montana.edu/max_millennium/ops/observing.shtml.
If you have any questions or comments about this new observing
plan, or its implementation, please contact Ryan Milligan
<r.milligan (at) qub.ac.uk>.
