Scientific paper

We propose a 150 ks observation of the brightest X-ray group of galaxies NGC 5044. By using the ACIS-S+HETG instrument, we will obtain a fully resolved zero-order image, large-scale images of some emission lines, and a high resolution spectrum of the core of the group. We expect to study a low temperature homogenous cooling flow in detail, measure the distribution of oxygen and iron throughout the group, map the dark matter potential and baryon fraction, and examine the apparent cooling flow wake. We argue that some of the unsolved problems in X-ray clusters can best be studied with an X-ray group.
