Scientific paper

We propose to obtain ACIS and EPIC observations of an X-ray selected cluster of galaxies from the ROSAT Distant Cluster Survey (RDCS). From the combined Chandra and Newton data we will determine the X-ray temperature (T_x) of the intracluster gas, thus completing our measurement of T_x for all 10 z>0.8 clusters found in the RDCS. We will use these combined observations to achieve the following science goals: 1) determine the temperature function for a complete sample of 10 clusters in the RDCS with z>0.8, and 2) calibrate the cluster total mass--T_x relation at these high redshifts.
