1 XMM EPIC MOS Steve Sembay (sfs5@star.le.ac.uk) Mallorca 02/02/05 Temporal and spatial variability of the MOS RMF 1.Introduction and brief history of the rmf problem 2.Investigation of the spectral evolution of Zeta Puppis as seen by the MOS CCDs, comparing the spectra in the core of the psf with that seen in the wings…i.e. a temporal and crude spatial analysis. 3.Investigation of the observed relative fluxes in 15 on-axis point sources (AGN) as measured in MOS1 and 2, pn and RGS1+2. 4.A new RMF for the MOS and its implications in terms of spectral fitting. 5.Andy will then present a detailed analysis of temporal and spatial variability in the rmf as revealed by mapping of the SNR 1ES0102 6. Implications for the user !!!

2 XMM EPIC MOS Steve Sembay (sfs5@star.le.ac.uk) Mallorca 02/02/05 E1+E2 Measurements from the Orsay Synchrotron of MOS1/CCD1 The low energy redistribution function of the MOS CCDs has a complex shape. The main photopeak has a secondary component (shoulder) which relatively increases with descreasing energy until it is the dominant component.

3 XMM EPIC MOS Steve Sembay (sfs5@star.le.ac.uk) Mallorca 02/02/05 Surface electrode structure of a type 22 EEV MOS CCD. The etched areas of the open phase in a single pixel are marked in red. Difference in redistribution shape of mono and bi-pixels indicate charge loss shoulder in mono pixels is much stronger

5 XMM EPIC MOS Steve Sembay (sfs5@star.le.ac.uk) Mallorca 02/02/05 Effect most pronounced at lower energies Shift in spectrum to lower energies Intrinsic change in redistribution properties of the central CCDs: Open filter observations of the INS RX J0720

6 XMM EPIC MOS Steve Sembay (sfs5@star.le.ac.uk) Mallorca 02/02/05 Significant change at low energies Evolution of the redistribution function in current SAS Smaller change at higher energies: Integrated photopeak at 550 eV down by ~ 4%
