Measure “Carbon” edge:

•Best guess at redistribution

•Fit phabs*bb*edge(E=0.28 keV) model to simultaneous

•0078, 0533, 0534, 0622, Thin Filter

•0175, 0622 Medium Filter

•0175, 0622 Open

•Nh, kT, Normalisation, tied

•Edge Energy fixed

•Edge optical depth free

Systematic Study of AGN with “smooth” continua

•3C 273 10 Obs

•PKS 2155-304 2 Obs (low state)

•Mkn 421 1 Obs (low state)

•MS 0797 1 Obs

•Mkn 180 1 Obs

•MS 1229 1 Obs

•Mkn 509 2 Obs

•TON S180 2 Obs

•S5 0836 1 Obs

PN: Pattern 0 spectra, “0-40” arcsec radius

MOS: Pattern 0 spectra, pile-up corrected (Molendi & Sembay), 0-40 arcsec radius

-Avoids problem with core extraction method for dealing with pile-up

Measure Oxygen Edge in all sources:

• Fit phabs*po*edge(0.532 keV) to

•0.4-1.0 keV narrow band spectra

•Model assumes “smooth” continuum across edge

•Nh fixed at Galactic value

•Edge energy fixed

•Photon Index, Normalisation, optical depth free

XMMEPICMOS

Evidence for Intrinsic “Oxygen Edge” in PN spectrum of 3C 273

XMMEPICMOS

Conclusions:

•Both MOS cameras show evolution in QE at “carbon” and oxygen

•PN seems unaffected

•Carbon/Oxygen ratio and difference in epoch dependancy not consistent with

a single compound

•Both MOS cameras show evolution in low energy redistribution
