Abstract: We consider the real part $Re(zeta(s))$ of the Riemann zeta-function $zeta(s)$ in the half-plane $Re(s)ge1$. We show how to compute accurately the constant $sigm{a}_0=1.19ldots$ which is defined to be the supremum of $sigma$ such that $Re(zeta(sigma+it))$ can be negative (or zero) for some real $t$. We also consider intervals where $Re(zeta(1+it))le0$ and show that they are rare. The first occurs for $t$ approximately 682112.9, and has length about 0.05. We list the first fifty such intervals.
