STATUS and MODES § § All instruments essentially stable Slew Mode tests on rev. 1242 (Sept. 19 -21) went well § essentially ready with EPIC (pn & MOS) and RGS instruments § but SOC systems need to handle slew scheduling less manually § also OM mode § RGS 2 ADC-problem glitch § now better understood § see dedicated splinter on contingency preparation § Slewing / re-pointing ‘mode’ for RGS ! § implementation requirements/plan by end-year ? ?

APOGEE GAP & SANTIAGO COVERAGE § Santiago provided coverage across Kourou-Perth gap • allowed continuous coverage throughout complete revolution § Gap shrinking through years & closes by end 2007 § By end 2006: • • the gap in telecommanding is as little as 35 minutes and telemetry gap totally disappeared § Decided to discontinue Santiago as of 1 Dec. 2006 § Plot shows evolution of apogee gap from 2006 to 2010

In the graph the TC gap on 01/12/2006 is ~1300 sec (22 min) to which a little margin (say 10 min) is added for acquisition of signal, carrier sweeping, etc. XMM-Newton 9/18/2021 Science Operations & Data Systems 13 Division Research & Scientific Support Department Page 13

APOGEE GAP & SANTIAGO COVERAGE In the 810 revs. from 450 to 1259 there were 5 cases of instrument closure due to soft protons (detected by the instruments themselves) at the time of the Santiago pass around apogee -/+ 2 h 1) Rev-614 35 2) Rev-621 h 20 min 3) Rev-628 20 4) Rev-873 h 30 min 5) Rev-1149 min : instruments were closed for min 2 min : instruments were closed for 1 1 h 35 XMM-Newton The probability of having an alert at that point in the revolution is, for the Science Operations & Data Systems 9/18/2021 14 Division Research & Scientific Support Department period considered, about 0. 62 % (note also that three cases were very Page close 14
