XMM EPIC MOS Andy Read for the BGWG CAL/OPS/BG Meeting Palermo, Sicily 11-13/04/07 XMM-ESAS : Example (SS/KK) XMM-ESAS processing of the two observations of Abell 1835 yield the same results. Temperature radial profiles for A1835 from two separate observations. Two observations have very different background conditions – one is very low BG – one is very soft proton flare dominated

XMM EPIC MOS Andy Read for the BGWG CAL/OPS/BG Meeting Palermo, Sicily 11-13/04/07 Soft Proton Flaring (KK/SS) (JAC/AMR looking at pn equivalent) Soft proton flaring is very dependent on the geometry of the observation. Plotted here is the good-time fraction as a function of time of year and position of XMM in its orbit. Plotted here is the good-time fraction as a function of position of XMM in its orbit. The black lines show the position of the magnetosheath. Large values of GSE-X occur during summer.

XMM EPIC MOS Andy Read for the BGWG CAL/OPS/BG Meeting Palermo, Sicily 11-13/04/07 Step 1 – Filter the Data and Extract Spectra Comparing the de Luca and Molendi ratio criteria (8-12 keV band) and the fitted flux for screened observations does aid in the identification of observations affected by residual contamination.

Values are the counts ks -1 for one ninth of the CCD Monthly FWC exposures of 10ks would produce 20 counts for each CCD ninth, enough for some tracking of the state and sufficient to produce 2160 counts/chip/year (enough for spectral analysis) in the standard state

XMM EPIC MOS Andy Read for the BGWG CAL/OPS/BG Meeting Palermo, Sicily 11-13/04/07 Flare-Free Fraction Total Observation Time (max~80 ks) Flare-Free Fraction as a function of orbital position (using ~entire EPIC dataset) GSE-X points towards the sun. GSE-X-GSE-Y plane is the plane of the ecliptic. GSE-Z is towards the north pole. Red indicates higher values. The best observations are made: When the spacecraft is as far from the earth as possible and at 180 degrees from the sun. Towards the sun seems to be better than 90 degrees from the sun. Given the orbit, the best observations will be done in Winter. to Sun K.Kuntz
