Optical monitoring revealed that the dramatic dimming phase stopped, suggesting that the accretion disk is in a major reconfiguration phase. The combined deep exposure will reveal which spectral components have changed since a high S/N XMM spectrum was taken during the bright phase a few years ago. Comparing the two AO17 observations will allow us to look for spectral changes on half-year timescales. These two XMM observations will fill the gaps of our already accepted low S/N Chandra monitoring program on Mrk 1018. The joint HST observations will allow us to establish the states of the accretion disk and how this connects to the X-ray corona. These COS-FUV observations are part of a coordinated multi-wavelength monitoring program combining X-rays (XMM-Newton) and optical observations of the changing-look AGN Mrk1018. Each epoch we obtain a 2 orbit long FUV spectrum with the G140L grating to cover the FUV continuum at high S/N as well as the flux and shape of broad emission lines such as Lya and CIV.
