Why is MOS2 different from MOS1???
Different external thermal environment???

EPIC-MOS Contamination Monitoring
Summary MOS2 trend continues upwards. Layer depth now ~50% as seen on RGS

MOS1 now no evidence for trend. Can keep model as is or adjust QE?
XMM-Newton contamination much less than Chandra or Suzaku

(see IACHEC contamination WG for latest results)
Could switch model from C to C8H8 for self-consistency with RGS Why is MOS2 different from MOS1??
