We present the deepest Chandra exposure yet of the central 100 kpc of Abell 2597. Our deeper data reveals the highly disturbed X-ray surface brightness distribution in more detail, including a 15 kpc long ``cold" (soft excess) filament. We also present evidence that one of the previously known ``ghost" cavities may be part of a much larger cavity, cospatial with low frequency radio emission, extending ˜ 25 kpc from the central to outer regions of the BCG. Temperature maps derived from X-ray spectral fitting show an excess of >3 keV gas aligned with the innermost rim of this cavity, consistent with a scenario in which the intracluster medium (ICM) is reheated as it rushes to refill the wake of the buoyantly rising bubble, as is expected in effervescent AGN feedback models.
