Newbie Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) YES! M1.0 Ratio is increasing again could go bigger! M1.1 Finish M1.22 Edited June 10, 2022 by Newbie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spots associated with the new region around 2029 are still intact and now a couple more! The S E limb looks quieter than it has been, but I’m keeping the faith! We are gonna have a very freckled face sun in the next couple of days! Gotta get get my optics out and acclimated, so I can tart checking it out in the next hour or so! im so excited! Hope all y’all are having a great ________ ! fill in the blank for whatever it is, where ever you are! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildWill Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 I am seeing a tiny little spot dim spot, ESE of the spots labeled 3029. I put it about 5*W 30*S. Anyone else see this lonely little weak sunspot? On the HMI magnetogram it is right where that very small black did is, in the phage that held 2029… 3030 developing nicely! Cheers!

I'd say thats kinda normal because the limb is foreshortening it. lets continue this in the thread for the region so the others are able to join the convo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3gMike Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 A couple of new regions just appearing on the NE limb. Not looking particularly active at the moment and not recorded on latest Synoptic Map. Can see spots on Intensitygram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bedreamon Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I remember hearing about there being "solar upticks" every ~6 or so months, but now that I'm looking it up again and finding... let's say, unreliable sources, I was probably misled. That said, I didn't know this thread was pinned. Nice! 😁👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice! 😁👍 Ben Davidson and his famous 5,9 months "solar uptick" bullshit. 🤣 This Thread is awesome, whenever we see something interesting on the Farside Maps or on the Limbs (Stereo, SDO) we come here to talk about how it looks, what it could bring, if its a recurrent region etc. until its like 1-2 days on the earth facing side and someone opens up a topic for it ^-^ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yak Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Where are the farside maps found. Also how do they gather data for these maps? Thanks Yak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbie Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Hello Yak, If you scroll down the Solar Activity page here on SWL you'll find the map EUVI/AIA 195 Stonyhurst Heliographic. There is an information 'i' tab, click on that. https://www.spaceweatherlive.com/en/solar-activity.html In addition Spaceweather.com gives a good explanation of how the far side is monitored see below. The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory's Michelson-Doppler Imager (MDI) can monitor sunspots on the far side of the Sun using a technique called "helioseismic holography." Typical holographic maps look like this: The false colors represent condensations of magnetic flux -- that is, sunspots. This holographic map captured April 12, 2001, shows the giant sunspot AR9393 on the back side of the Sun a full week before it emerged into direct view over the Sun's eastern limb. MDI holographic images reveal the Earth-facing side of the Sun 70 degrees from the disk center, and the far side of the Sun 50 degrees from disk center. How does helioseismology work? The Sun is a hummimg ball of sound waves launched by turbulent convective motions in our star's outer layers. "The waves we monitor [using MDI] have a period of about 5 minutes," says Phil Scherrer of Stanford University, principal investigator for the MDI instrument. "That's roughly the turn-over time of the California-sized bubbles that appear as granulation of the photosphere." Solar granulation is what excites the Sun's internal sound waves. Solar sound waves are mostly trapped inside our star -- they refract away from the Sun's hot core and reflect back and forth between different parts of the photosphere. (Click on the image, left, for a 1.8 Mb Quicktime movie of trapped solar sound waves.) By monitoring the Sun's vibrating surface, helioseismologists can probe the stellar interior in much the same way that geologists use seismic waves from earthquakes to probe the inside of our planet. Intense magnetic fields around sunspots affect the transit times of sound waves bouncing from one side of the Sun to the other, variations that the MDI can detect and transform to reveal magnetic condensations (i.e, sunspots) on the hidden side of the Sun. Called "helioseismic holography," this technique can produce actual images of the far side of our star. For more information please visit the MDI Farside Imaging home page at Stanford. See also "Acoustic Imaging the Backside of the Sun", a collection of press releases and multimedia resources. Not sure if embedded links will work. Finally there are NSO GONG farside images.

3gMike Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 AR3040 looks like it might be making some decent growth, and produced 3 C flares yesterday. In absence of SDO data we can at least track growth here http://helio.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/hec/hec_gui_free.php?sql=select+*+from+noaa_active_region_summary+where+nar%3D13040 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funfact: region growing on jsoc farside map, shrinking/disappearing on gong Yes, that large zone certainly covers the central coordinates of 3014 (Carr 104, Lat 22) which became 3032 (Carr 106, Lat 20) on last rotation. The leading edge of the zone is quite possibly a large plage area, and I would not be surprised if the zone broke up as it approaches the limb.

MinYoongi Posted July 10, 2022 Author Share Posted July 10, 2022 The incoming limb looks interesting south and north! Loops and also enhanced background flux. Or is the flux rising due to 3053 + 3055 @mozy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
