Chandra Proposal Id #09900059

Scientific paper

We propose to observe two intermediate-redshift galaxy groups with Chandra to determine their temperature and X-ray luminosity to r_500. These observations are part of a larger program to observe the 14 brightest groups detected in the XBootes survey. The primary science goals of this project are (1) to exploit the unique multi-wavelength coverage of the XBootes field to investigate the X-ray properties of optically-selected galaxy groups in the 0.15 < z < 0.35 range, and (2) to probe the evolution of group X-ray emission, specifically the Lx/T relation, which is sensitive to non-gravitational effect at these low mass scales. We include a third group which is projected behind a nearby LINER galaxy as an alternate GTO target.
