  Title: THE DARK MATTER IN THE BRIGHT ELLIPTICAL GALAXY: NGC4636                        


Abstract:
 To derive a reliable estimate for the darkmatter amound in elliptical galaxies, we
 propose to observe NGC4636 for 100 ksec. This observation determines whether the
 darkmatter only belongs to individual galaxies or there is a component in the
 cluster scale. The proposed target is one of the brightest elliptical galaxies, and
 its isolated location gives ideal opportunity for the present study.
