Scientific paper

Structure of jets and their basic properties are still unknown. That is especially true for the most powerful jets hosted by quasars and FRII radio galaxies, because they are too distant to study their structure with high spatial resolution. Radio galaxy 3C353 is a truly unique source, because its two jets - of the FRII type - are 4''-wide, and therefore can be well resolved by Chandra. Moreover, it is situated at the edge of the merging cluster Zw1718.1-0108, and is characterized by an unusual (asymmetric) lobe morphology. The proposed 90 ks Chandra observation of this objects will allow us to investigate [1] the transverse structure of an X-ray jet of the FR II type with unparalleled spatial resolution, and [2] the interaction between the lobes of this radio galaxy and a merging cluster.
