Scientific paper

We propose the continuation of our XMM survey of galaxy clusters at z<0.075 located within a 40x40 sq.deg. region around the approximate location of the "Great Attractor" (GA) behind the Milky Way, to explain the observed large-scale flow toward and beyond the GA. All but one of our target clusters are new discoveries, found in the course of the CIZA X-ray cluster survey. Our total sample of 16 represents a complete census of the most X-ray luminous and thus presumably most massive clusters in this region. The proposed observations will allow us to measure accurate cluster masses, which in turn will permit a reconstruction of the local gravitational field that is independent of and complementary to the one based on the density of IRAS-selected field galaxies.
