Scientific paper

We present deep Chandra observations of the cool core clusters Abell 2052 and Abell 262. New features, including ghost bubbles, ripples, edges, and a tunnel are revealed. Correlations of features seen in the X-ray and radio give evidence for multiple outbursts of the AGN. Comparison of the radio source energy input rates with the ICM cooling rates shows that the radio source can easily offset the cooling in A2052 and is much closer to offsetting the cooling in A262 than was estimated previously. Maps of pressure and temperature will be presented, as well as correlations between surface brightness features and optical-line emission. We constrain the temperature of diffuse, hot gas that may be filling the bubbles and providing pressure support to uphold the cool, dense shells surrounding the bubbles.
