Scientific paper

We plan to derive the X-ray properties of 3 isolated early type galaxies to provide answers to fundamental issues concerning the connection between environment and E galaxies formation. The X-ray data will tell us whether group dominant Es are indeed overluminous and significantly more extended relative to isolated ones. While the presence of extended halos provides strong observational support to theories assuming that bright Es are formed within groups, non detections might severely challenge these hierarchical formation models. Isolated E samples used in previous works include non isolated Es, due to limitations in the parent sample from which they are drawn. We therefore have selected a new sample with solid isolation criteria.
