Scientific paper

We request a 200~ksec deep Chandra ACIS-S observation of the high redshift, z=1.1 X-ray cluster associated with the radio-loud quasar 3C~186. We will detect the X-ray cluster emission up to ~0.5~Mpc away from the quasar, study its morphology, and look for an excess temperature as a signature of interaction or a merging process in this high redshift cluster. This cluster is associated with a powerful young quasar (L_bol ~ 10^47 erg/sec) and it gives us a rare opportunity to study an early phase of the interaction between a quasar and its surrounding intracluster medium.
