Description
We make use of the XCOP sample to address two fundamental and unanswered questions: 1)What is the metal content of the Intra-Cluster Medium? 2) Is the metal content of the ICM consistent with that expected from the stellar population? We do this with XCOP, a very large program (VLP) on XMM-Newton designed to characterize a sample of 12 Massive Clusters out to large radii.
