Powerful AGN outbursts in galaxy clusters can release upward of 1E61 erg into the intracluster medium. Events of this magnitude are able to quench cooling flows and drive large-scale outflows that redistribute and heat the gas on cluster-wide scales. The most potent example of this is seen in the z=0.22 cluster MS0735.6+7421, whose powerful shock and cavity system have injected an estimated 6E61 erg of energy into the ICM. We propose to obtain a 500 ksec ACIS image of the cluster to examine in detail the relationships between the shock, cavity, and radio systems, and to investigate the impact of powerful AGN outbursts on the structure of the cluster.
