Scientific paper

We propose a deep observation of the cluster Abell 400, which is host to the spectacular double twin-jet radio source 3C 75. The radio jets of each source show a number of bends which are common to both sources and are reflective of environmental conditions. Our initial short Chandra exposure shows the elongated cluster emission is clumpy; there is a hot X-ray region south of the AGN and a cool region to the north. Our previous AO-4 XMM observations (for the HIFLUGCS project) were lost due to flares. We will study the ICM density, temperature and pressure in the region of the radio source. These observations will allow us to examine the mechanism responsible for deflecting the twin tails: Is it due to the merger, density gradients, or inhomogeneities?
