| Abstract | We propose a deep observation of the CC cluster Abell 2667, where a recent studyhighlighted the presence of cold gas associated to an incipient cooling flow.The radio and the X-ray nuclear emission of the BCG depicts a situation similarto the Phoenix cluster, but with a ~20X lower nuclear power and 50X lower SFrate. Preliminary spectral analysis on a short XMM observation shows hints of amass flow of ~100 Msun/yr below 1 keV, consistent with the onset of a massivecooling flow. Our main scientific goal is to measure the mass deposition rate inthis young-Phoenix BCG making use of the full strength of XMM by (EPIC + RGSdata) to cover a new parameter range in the dot M-SFR plane, and provide a morecomplete picture of the cycle of baryons in the central regions of clusters. |

| 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. |
