Solar activity report

Any mentioned solar flare in this report has a scaling factor applied by the Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC). Because of the SWPC scaling factor, solar flares are reported as 42% smaller than for the science quality data. The scaling factor has been removed from our archived solar flare data to reflect the true physical units.

Joint USAF/NOAA Report of Solar and Geophysical Activity

SDF Number 162 Issued at 2200Z on 11 Jun 2001

IA. Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z

Solar activity was low. The largest events of the period were the successive C5 and C7 x-ray bursts at 11/0451Z and 11/0552Z respectively. These events appeared to be associated with activity on the SE limb near new Region 9501 (S14E69), and a filament eruption south of Region 9488 (S19W45). CME's were observed with both events, but did not appear earthbound. Region 9494 (S08W69) was responsible for some minor C-class activity, but though maintaining moderate complexity and size, flare output has decreased considerably. Three new regions were numbered today - Regions 9499 (N18E17), 9500 (N10E71), and 9501, making a total of 15 spot groups on the visible disk..
IB. Solar Activity Forecast
Solar activity is expected to be low to moderate. A small chance for an M-class flare exist in several regions, primarily in Region 9494.
IIA. Geophysical Activity Summary 10-2100Z to 11-2100Z
The geomagnetic field was quiet to unsettled. The greater than 2 MeV electrons were at moderate levels for the latter half of the period.
IIB. Geophysical Activity Forecast
The geomagnetic field is expected to continue at quiet to unsettled levels.
