Scientific paper

We propose a 60 ks observation for detailed ACIS-S imaging and spectroscopy of the X-ray jet discovered in our 5 ks Chandra observation of the famous radio galaxy NGC 315. The source shows unusual internal substructure within its kpc-scale radio jet, and our proposed Chandra observations would resolve the same structure in the X-ray if it is present. We expect the X-ray jet emission to be of synchrotron origin, as is normal for low-power radio galaxies. Correspondences and offsets between radio and X-ray features then reveal the relative rates of particle acceleration, advection, diffusion, and local ageing.
