Scientific paper

Our current understanding of the X-ray properties of galaxy groups is limited by poor quality data and an inhomogeneous and non-representative coverage of the mass function. We propose to make sufficiently deep observations of a representative X-ray luminosity selected sample of 10 galaxy groups to detect the emission out to ~ R_500 with similar accuracy to that available for observations of nearby clusters. With these data we will investigate the relative importance of gravitational and non-gravitational processes in setting the observed X-ray properties of group scale haloes, via extensive examination of their structural and scaling properties.
