Scientific paper

Estimates are made of the total amount of mass and the total amount of heavy elements expected to be lost during the early evolution of the galaxies in a typical group or cluster. The estimated amount of gas lost is roughly one quarter of the mass present in galaxies, and the metal abundance of the lost gas is essentially solar. Several possibilities concerning the fate of the gas lost from galaxies are discussed.
