Scientific paper

The discovery of the gravitationally lensed images of back-ground galaxies in distant clusters of galaxies provide a new tool to measure the mass distributions of clusters of galaxies. It has been claimed that the lensing estimates of the cluster mass are systematically a factor of 2-5 larger than those estimated from X-ray observations. Aiming to resolve this problem, a deep pointed observations of the lensing cluster CL0024+17 which has the most ideal configuration of the lensed images, is proposed to measure accurate temperature and X-ray morphology. If CL0024+17 is pointed on the aimpoint of ACIS-S3, a dark lens system MG0023+171 can be covered by ACIS-S0. Therefore, we propose to perform X-ray search for dark lens object of MG0023+171 simultaneously by adjusting a role angle.
