Major changes to low energy calibration for EPIC cameras planned.

MOS: For the next SAS release rmfgen will be modified to generate
rmfs for the MOS detectors which are epoch AND spatially dependant.

PN: Shows no significant evolution of the rmf or arf with time but a
change in the absolute rmf is being implemented to improve low energy calibration.

Summary
Major advances in the EPIC low energy cross-calibration soon to be implemented
suggest a more robust determination of the spectral shape/model of the soft
excess in 3C 273 can be made.
The EPIC view of the hard X-ray data suggest that the nonthermal component
is dominant over the “accretion” component, probably more so than suggested by
the recent published analysis of BeppoSAX results.
