LASCO Activity Report for
June 03, 2004 SOHO Science Daily Meeting

Planner: K. Schenk, G. Stenborg

Event times are first frame seen in C2 camera unless otherwise noted.
These are preliminary observations for the daily SOHO science discussions.
Final analysis is reported on the Lasco CME list.
An archive of these reports is available.


Points Of Interest

VENUS is entering (from the left) the C3 field of view at the time of writing
(around midday UT on June 3, 2004).

Soho Telemetry Submode back in Submode 5 today at 02:00 UT.

SOHO Telemetry Submode changed to Submode 6 on Wednesday 2 at 14:00 UT for EIT 
Shutterless Campaign (20:00 - 22:40 UT).

SOHO Telemetry Submode changed to Submode 5 on 2004/04/13 at 16:00 UT 
(SUMER began observing on 2004/04/14). SUMER campaign runs until 2004/06/17.
In other words, LASCO synoptic observation plan cadence remains the same
but the EIT CME watch images will be reduced to half-resolution (512x512)
during that period.


2004/06/02 (Wednesday)

05:50 UT  WS West	Faint ragged front that fades close to the inner edge
			of C3.

10:50 UT  WS West	Faint ragged front accompanied by a jet-like front, 
			and followed by a couple of ragged spray-like fronts
			(at 11:50 UT and 13:27 UT) that fade close to the inner
			edge of C3.

18:58 UT  N West	Bright asymmetric ragged loop front, brighter to N.

	20:00 - 22:40 UT	EIT Shutterless Campaign (Subfield images in
				304 A). EIT CME watch resumed at 00:00 UT.
				1 LASCO C2 per ~hour, no C3 images.

20:50 UT  W Limb	Spray-like front immediately followed (21:41 UT) by a
			diffuse loop front.

23:15 UT  W Limb	Bright ragged loop front (typical limb event). However,
			extremely faint extensions seem to surround the C2
			occultor by 00:26 UT on next day (not discernible in
			C3). Gusty outflow at the southern leg of the event.

2004/06/03 (Thursday)

05:50 UT  WS West	Narrow and ragged asymmetric front in the gusty outflow
			at the southern leg of previous event. It fades 
			throughout C3.

09:50 UT  WN West 	Faint ragged loop front.
