The XXL Survey - I. Scientific motivations − XMM-Newton observing plan − Follow-up observations and simulation programme

Marguerite Pierre, +96 more
TL;DR: The XXL-XMM survey as discussed by the authors provides constraints on the dark energy equation of state from the space-time distribution of clusters of galaxies and serves as a pathfinder for future, wide-area X-ray missions.
