Half Tohban report, 19-jul-2004 to 23-jul-2004 J.McTiernan, jimm@ssl.berkeley.edu 1. Solar Activity: Active, but not as much as last week, two high M class flares, background GOES level near the C level. 2. Memory Managment: Decimation acitve/normal (IDPU version 13) for the entire week. SSR fill level is% -- on the 1st pass today. 3. Data Gaps: Still have vc3 gaps stretching back to 15-jul-2004, long ones on 19-jul-2004, 20-jul-2004, 21-jul-2004. Short one on the 22nd. I'm assuming that these are the same problems as were happening last week with the new servers. 4. Misc: S/C had magnetometer trouble on Monday (19-jul-2004) was in IDLE mode on first pass, recovered on the second pass... jm -------------------- Other half Tohban report, 24-jul-2004 to 26-jul-2004 Martin Fivian, mfivian@ssl.berkeley.edu 1. Solar Activity: How many GOES flares occurred? Flares above B, C, M, X class were 3 50 12 0 And how many of these are listed in the RHESSI flare list? Flares above B, C, M, X class were 2 37 10 0 And how many had EXCELLENT coverage? Flares above B, C, M, X class were 0 25 4 0 There were RHESSI flares/GOES flares 236 / 65 over the time range 19-Jul-04 26-Jul-04 Currently, the active region 0652 is predicted to keep flaring with a small probability (NOAA: 20 % and decreasing) for X-flares. Expecting a similar level of activity as in the last days, the decimation is kept in ACTIVE/NORMAL. 2. Memory Management The SSR level shows currently 35 % by the end of the BGS sequence loosing ground for the last two days. Operations ask for extra passes for the next 4 or 5 days until the solar activity is quieter again. 3. Data Gaps Some of the remaining data gaps will be recovered since the vc3 files are stored somewhere on the ground. Nevertheless, data from three passes at Santiago are stored on a tape (in Santiago) and operators weren't able yet to recover those files. It's likely that they're lost. The corresponding observation times will be reported next week. 4. Misc After 2004-07-20 16:07, ACS was not in NORMAL mode for about 9 hours because of an autonumous transition to IDLE due to a 5 minutes time range of erroneous spin rate calculations.
