Abstract We recently carried out the 3CR snapshot survey, designed to complete the X-raycoverage of all extragalactic radio sources listed in the Third Cambridgecatalog (3CR). Here we request XMM-Newton follow up observations of twolow-redshift radio galaxies: 3CR403.1 and 3CR430 harbored in galaxy clusters.We aim at estimating spectral parameters of both galaxy clusters surroundingthese FRII radio galaxies and measure the extension of the galaxy clustertracing the diffuse X-ray emission due to the intergalactic medium (IGM) incomparison with the detected radio structures at ~150 MHz. We will also be ableto compare galaxy cluster properties of both our targets with those of FRIs atsimilar z, crucial to test results recently achieved with our statistical analyses.

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.
