We propose a deep (280 ks) ACIS-S Chandra observation of the cluster WARPS J1415+3612 at z=1.026. Our analysis of an archival 90 ksec ACIS-I observation revealed a peaked surface brightness profile, typical of cool-core clusters. Recent studies show that, while there is no evolution in the cool-core fraction up to z=0.4, there is an apparent deficit of very strong cool-core clusters out to z=1.3. In our study, WARPSJ1415 is shown to be the most prominent cool core at z>1. With the proposed observation we want to measure, for the first time at z=1, a high-quality temperature and metallicity profile for WARPSJ1415 in order to directly compare its properties with those of cool-core clusters at z<0.5. We will also derive accurate DM and density profiles to be compared with lensing studies.
