IlikeAuroras Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 This sunspot region spewed out 3 M-flares in the past 24 hours, and it hasn't weakened yet. It has only 1 sunspot, which got me interested in this region. AR3112 got my hopes up because this region is active! This is how active AR3112 is: I don't see signs of AR3112 becoming weaker, so lets cross our fingers that this region spews out an X-flare! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opposite polarities all jumbled together. This is the most impressive looking AR I’ve seen in a while! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinYoongi Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Good Morning. Does it really only have 1 spot? Or what do you mean? Cool region! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s merge them into one topic here when the second one gets a number.

3gMike Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 3 hours ago, MinYoongi said: in their forecast discussion noaa calls them 2 seperate AR's i think. Hi Min, The NOAA forecast does refer to two ARs, but the second (AR3113) is at N16W14, so not related. The current location given for AR3112 is N20, Carrington 62 which places it halfway between the previous locations of ARs 3094 and 3098, so there has obviously been some development in that region. Looking at SDO images it seems that there are more spots coming into view at a higher latitude. The jsoc farside image also indicates more to come after that, so I would expect more than one region to be defined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanaticstargazer Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 hi again i'm really sry, tried different browsers, even uploaded the gif to giphy, but today is not my day, the gif doesnt show up there. you have to be fast for stereo ahead, or you miss it. i uploaded the gif on giphy as stargazergif, tags: stereo, sun, 20221001. maybe it shows up later? otherwise it will be visible later on spaceweatherlive i guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no notable size eruption in the past like 12 hours so im confused. Sorry you cant upload a Gif, i wish i could help. Can btw someone tell me if the region really is beta delta? why no gamma? where exactly are the deltas? " new Region 3112 (N21E72, Dao/beta-delta). However, an accurate classification of Region 3112 was not possible due to limb proximity." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too far away still, but it does appear to possibly have a delta. Edited October 1, 2022 by mozy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, just confused as to why no Gamma assignment. I mean yeah, low confidence n stuff, but assigning a Delta is more difficult than Gamma imo. Thats why i searched / asked for (possible) deltas.

I’m not sure either, but despite this, the region (or region of regions) is looking very complex! Multiple opposing polarities all mixed in with one another should bring good offerings for us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philalethes Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 By the looks of it I'm going to guess it's going to be designated gamma pretty soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im still searching the exact delta(s). But its hard because the limb distorts so much. Always a bummer :D! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have to wait a little bit more to get a clearer correspondence between the i-gram intensities within the respective polarities, but by the looks of it there seems to be at least some groups of spots of different polarity that are not easily separable with a single line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And where are the deltas? Also, yes, quite gamma-ry. Can someone help me with SDO, seems to be down for me? @Philalethes Bythos Im just confused because Noaa lists it as Beta, Spaceweatherlive did as Beta Delta and now beta gamma delta and im just 1 big pile of confusion. would you let me see your next gif? they make it so much easier! ❤️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solarflaretracker200 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Well I am offline for a day and come back to see this region with a BGD type of thing going on. Huh, interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see it's a gamma now. It shows in the Region 3112 info tab and the sunspot regions section in Real-time Solar activity that it's a Beta-Gamma-Delta class region. We can all say that it's a Beta-Gamma-Delta class region. A powerful region indeed. It might be less powerful due to the region being in the limb of the sun, so yeah we gotta wait a bit.
