Dear RHESSI Collaborators,
The level of solar activity is low. Yesterday's target region (NOAA 11835) has shown signs of fragmentation and decay in its leading and following spots. The largest event since the last message was a C1.2 flare released by NOAA 11836 on 29-Aug-2013 at 04:34 UT). NOAA 11836 was also responsible for B-class activity. Although the region does not show the largest spot area on disk, it is surrounded by mixed polarity plage in its southern portion, which may be contributing to its destabilisation. The region has not shown signs of decay and may still be in an unstable state. Its loop configuration seen in X-ray images has not changed dramatically since the C-class flare. Further B-class activity is expected with a chance for an isolated C-class event.
The position of NOAA 11836 on 29-Aug-2013 at 18:00 UT is:
N10E45, ( -664", 82" )
