Scientific paper

We propose to investigate the outburst history of the SMBH that lies in IC1262, the central galaxy in a poor cluster by combining Chandra ACIS and VLA observations (at 20 and 90 cm) of the highly disturbed plasmas that fill the ICM. The available observations show clear evidence, recorded in the ICM, of multiple SMBH outbursts including buoyant plasma bubbles, X-ray arms, and a possible weak shock, all very similar to M87. With the proposed observations, we can chronicle the outburst history of the SMBH, derive the energy output of the SMBH with time, determine the dynamical significance of the radio emitting plasma, measure/limit the turbulence in the gas, and study the microphysics of the interaction between the radio and X-ray plasmas.
