WEEK 579 from 2012 Jan 30  

SOLAR ACTIVITY

Solar activity was very low, with the GOES X-ray background at low B level, and only two
small C flares during the whole week. The descending part of the proton event linked to
the X1.7 flare of January 27 was observed till January 31, when the greater than 10 MeV
proton flux dived beneath the threshold level again.

GEOMAGNETIC ACTIVITY
--------------------

Geomagnetic activity has been quiet during the whole week.
