Entropy in Groups
These groups show excess entropy similar to low-z systems.

Galaxy Populations
Similar to clusters, they have large fractions of early-type galaxies (fe~0.7) and small fractions of galaxies with significant star formation (fOII~0.3).

BGG Formation
• None of the central galaxies, including those with multiple components, show significant [OII] emission.
• Consistent with late formation of BGGs through gas-poor mergers.
• Late BCG formation seen in simulations (De Lucia & Blaizot 2006; Dubinski 1998).

Summary• The X-ray properties of these groups are similar to
low-z groups.– They appear to follow the scaling relations between L, T,
and and they show excess entropy over self-similar predictions.
• We do not observe a strong evolution in the galaxy populations from X-ray luminous low-z groups. – They have large fractions of early-type galaxies and small
fractions of galaxies with significant star formation.– However, the galaxy populations vary between groups.
• Unlike low-z, X-ray luminous groups, we do not generally find a single, dominant BGG at the center of these groups. Late BGG formation?

Future
• Upcoming observations with Chandra and XMM
• High-resolution spectroscopy and simulations of multiple component BGGs
• X-ray and optical follow up of a large, X-ray selected sample of groups at low-redshift
