LASCO Activity Report for
June 8, 2005 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
- Couple of Kreutz comets on C2 since late on 2005/06/06 moving from the
South toward the Sun. The fainter one vanishes on 06/07 by ~ 03:48 UT,
and the other one by ~ 06:48 UT. The bigger one (the one to the right)
was first detected in C3 at about 04:00 UT on 06/06.
* Telemetry KEYHOLE (SOHO will stay in TM Submode 5 during the Keyhole):
2005/06/05 - 2005/06/25: 26 m
2005/06/09 - 2005/06/20: 34 m
* During the KEYHOLE, LASCO will be in synoptic program at the usual
cadences, with little loss of telemetry throughout due to the advanced
recorder setup.
* 2005/05/06 - 2005/06/24: EIT Bakeout (==> No EIT CME Watch).
EIT performed the long pre-bake calset (06/06 15:58-21:45 UT) and went
to heaters on at 21:52 UT. EIT will be in bake till June 24 @ 10:00 UT
and should resume imaging by (06/24) 20:00 UT.
2005/06/07 (Tuesday)
02:00 UT EN East Ragged front along streamer.
02:36 UT E Limb Diffuse and ragged elongated loop front.
10:24 UT N East Diffuse loop front starts to be discernible. It develops
as a bright loop front by ~ 11:12 UT, and is followed by
nice prominence material at 12:12 UT (the latter is
brighter than the loop front). The mean plane-of-sky
spped of the LE of the loop front at PA 61 was around
368 km/sec, showing slight acceleration.
2005/06/08 (Wednesday)
02:00 UT N East Very faint elongated front that fades throughout C2.
04:00 UT EN East Faint blob-like front.
05:12 - 12:48 UT Temporary DSN Data Gap.
12:48 UT W Limb Faint asymmetric amd expanding loop front extanding all
the way up to past the S Pole, already under development
after data gap (apparently Partial Halo event).
Time of the last C2 image analyzed: 15:36 UT.
