We propose to map Abell 2199 cluster z=0.03, 4.2 keV out to r180:with two deeppointings (70 ks for each) towards a large-scale filament and a void, and sevenpointings (20 ks for each) for remaining regions within 0.4--1.0 r180. Oneobjective is to study luminosity and temperature functions of accretingsubstracture/subclumps and study dynamics of cluster outskirt. We will usespectra of sources and a logN-logS diagram to identify clumps. The otherobjective is to detect point-like sources to reduce uncertainties caused byunresolved sources with Suzaku. With Suzaku key project data of the samecluster, we will be able to study influence of substructure and other pointsources on global X-ray out to r180.

Mission Description
The European Space Agencys (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESAs second cornerstone of the Horizon 2000 Science Programme. It carries 3 high throughput X-ray telescopes with an unprecedented effective area, and an optical monitor, the first flown on a X-ray observatory. The large collecting area and ability to make long uninterrupted exposures provide highly sensitive observations. Since Earths atmosphere blocks out all X-rays, only a telescope in space can detect and study celestial X-ray sources. The XMM-Newton mission is helping scientists to solve a number of cosmic mysteries, ranging from the enigmatic black holes to the origins of the Universe itself. Observing time on XMM-Newton is being made available to the scientific community, applying for observational periods on a competitive basis.
