Tohban report, 5-dec-2007 to 12-dec-2007 J.McTiernan, jimm@ssl.berkeley.edu 1. Solar Activity: Activity: 7 C-class flares from AR 10978, some of which were well-observed by RHESSI. How many GOES flares occurred? Flares above B, C, M, X class were 66 7 0 0 And how many of these are listed in the RHESSI flare list? Flares above B, C, M, X class were 37 6 0 0 And how many had EXCELLENT coverage? Flares above B, C, M, X class were 27 2 0 0 There were RHESSI flares/GOES flares 175 / 73 over the time range 11-Dec-07 18-Dec-07 As mentionned in the previous Tohban report: "the large number of RHESSI events is due to a change in the software reducing the energy band for flare-finding to 6 to 12 keV from 12 to 25 keV. Lower Energy Band = More flares and more counts for position finding." AR 10978 has rotated over the western limb of the sun, leaving the sun blank. There appear to be on sunspot on the far side of the sun either. GOES baseline is aroung B1. 2. Memory Managment: Decimation was normal/active for the week. No front segment data taken during S/C night. The SSR is at 0% at the end of all daily passes. 3. Data Gaps: We seem to have an orbit-long VC3 data gap on the 2007/12/16. Nothing major (solar-wise) occured during that time, though. DATA GAPS FOR 2007/12/16 TIME RANGE: 2007-12-16T00:00:00.000 -- 2007-12-17T00:00:00.000 NO GAPS IN APP_ID = 1 (VC1-SOH) NO GAPS IN APP_ID = 154 (VC1-PMTRAS) GAPS IN APP_ID = 102 (VC3-MONITOR RATES) WITH PACKET RATE LT 30 N_GAPS 1 GAP START TIME GAP END TIME GAP (SEC) 2007-12-16T17:25:00.000 -- 2007-12-16T19:10:00.000 6300.0000 4. Misc: -G2 is still at 73V and unsegmented. It is taking in (front) counts. 5. Next week's tohban: David Smith
