Solar Activity

Solar activity this week was moderate with 3 M class flares. There are currently 10 active regions on the Sun, 6 of these will rotate over the limb within the next 48 hours. However AR 11618, which has produced a number of C and M class flares over the last 24 hours is currently in the center of the disk. STEREO B shows one further active region which will rotate onto the disk in the next few days.

How many GOES flares occurred?

 Flares above B, C, M, X class were      8    33     3     0

And how many of these are listed in the RHESSI flare list?

 Flares above B, C, M, X class were      7    21     3     0

And how many had EXCELLENT coverage?

 Flares above B, C, M, X class were      2     6     0     0

There were RHESSI flares/GOES flares 280 / 44 over the time range 14-Nov-12 21-Nov-12

Spacecraft Status

Data Gaps

There were a number of 5 min data gaps throughout the week.
