Description | We propose to observe 8 galaxy groups with a total exposure time of 68 ks to complete observations for a flux limited sample consisting of 67 objects. We will use this well-defined sample to study the scaling law properties of local low-mass systems. Only with the requested observations we will be able to correct for sample selection effects entering in the scaling relations, increasing the constraining power by a factor of 2 compared to previous samples. Furthermore, we will determine detailed thermodynamic profiles within R2500 (i.e., the region where simulations differs more noticeably) putting constraints on the feedback processes. |

Mission Description | The European Space Agency's (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESA's 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 Earth's 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. |
