Scientific paper

In the coming year three new, major experiments are opening a new survey window to the Universe through the first surveys for galaxy clusters using the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect. These efforts have been marked as one of the four most promising routes to tackle the problem of Dark Energy observationally. To fully understand the results to be obtained we propose a comlementary X-ray survey in an area where the three major SZ experiments, SPT, APEX and ACT have focused their efforts into a common test region covering an area of 12.5 deg2 in X-rays. XMM-Newton is the only instrument which can effectively provide such a survey and it would be a pity if the XMM mission would miss this unique chance to help opening this new window to the Universe.
