Scientific paper

To use clusters as sensitive probes to study the emergence of cosmic structure and to test cosmological models, we need a better knowledge of the scaling relations of cluster mass and observable properties. With this goal a Large Program was approved in AO3 to study a representative sample of 34 clusters in detail. The observations are now completed. While we obtained very good results for a large fraction of the clusters, a substantial fraction of the data are rendered unusable by high background events as demonstrated below. To achieve our observational goals, it is critical that the complete sample be observed and the clusters with the poorest data, 9 clusters, be reobserved. In addition, note that multi-wavelength observations of the entire sample have begun.
