Hunt for echoes of powerful outbursts in the BCG 3C196.1\: a XMM+Chandra look

We propose 91ks XMM and 40ks Chandra joint observation of the cluster that hoststhe radio galaxy 3C196.1. The Chandra snapshot observation of 3C196.1 shows awealth of structures, indicative of complex dynamical interactions between theICM and 3C196.1. XMM is requested for 91ks to investigate the cluster outskirtsand determine the echoes of past outbursts related to 3C196.1, measure thecavity in surface brightness (SB) at virgul300kpc scale, aligned with the inner jet.We will measure discontinuities in SB and in temperature to constrain AGN,mergingdriven shock or sloshing. Chandra 40ks observation will be combined withthe already available 8ks to derive high angular resolution SB morphology of theinner core, investigate the cavities and directly probe kinetic feedback in action. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
