LASCO Activity Report for
July 01, 2004 SOHO Science Daily Meeting

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

SATURN entered the C3 FOV (from the left) on 2004/06/29 (Tuesday).

SOHO is now in a telemetry keyhole (2004/06/16 - 2004/07/03). LASCO data 
will consist of typically two (occasionally three) continuous periods of
real-time data per day.

EIT 195 CME watch was interrupted on 2004/06/15 (Tuesday) at 15:00 UT
for EIT CCD bakeout calibrations. EIT CCD bakeout started on 2004/06/15 
at ~ 20:00 UT. EIT CCD bakeout until 2004/07/04 (Sunday).

LASCO C2 and C3 will be in high cadence during the rest of the week: 
C2 at a 12 minute cadence, C3 at the 30 minute cadence.

  	02:24 - 05:24 UT 	Telemetry Data Gap.  

06:00 UT  W Limb	Small ragged loop front.

	07:36 - 11:12 UT 	Telemetry Data Gap.  

11:48 UT  W Limb	Bright ragged loop front that fades close to the inner
			edge of C3 FOV. It is preceded by a small ragged front.

17:24 UT  N East	Diffuse and faint loop front followed at 20:36 UT 
			(already under development after data gap) by a similar
			front slightly to N. The second front moves apparently
			faster than the first one in the C3 FOV and seems to
			surpass the first front before fading.

	18:48 - 20:36 UT 	Telemetry Data Gap.  

20:57 UT  N West	Fairly faint ragged loop front already under development
			after data gap. It fades throughout C2.

22:36 UT  S West	Ragged loop front that fades close to the inner edge
			of C3 FOV.
	

2004/07/01 (Thursday)

	
01:24 UT  E Limb	Loop front with apparently twisted inner structure 
			preceded (surrounded) by a fainter and diffuse front
			slightly ahead and to N moving faster. Both features
			fade in C3.
 
05:48 UT  W Limb	Bright loop front with structured interior.
