Solar Activity

A large prominence (~ 1 Rs in length!). Look at EIT image! Only 1 C-flare during this week, though.

How many GOES flares occurred?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were     35     1     0     0
And how many of these are listed in the RHESSI flare list?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were     15     0     0     0
And how many had EXCELLENT coverage?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were     11     0     0     0
 
There were RHESSI flares/GOES flares          33 /           36
over the time range 30-Nov-10 07-Dec-10
 

Today, two ~10-hr long GOES flux increase (from ~B1 baseline to ~B2). CMEs??

Memory Management

The SSR is increasing the fill level due to loss passes, reaching a maximum at ~47%. In average the were 10 passes per day. It is expected that this regime will last another week.

Data Gaps

No major data gaps were reported. However, there were two VC3 data gaps:
