We propose to obtain high-resolution imaging of the most extreme cool core cluster in the REXCESS sample: RXJ2014.8-2430. REXCESS is a representative z~0.1 sample of 31 clusters spanning a wide range in luminosity, mass, and temperature. It was designed to avoid bias in X-ray morphology or central surface brightness. Nearly a million seconds of XMM time has been invested to measure the X-ray properties of these clusters, and they have extensive ground-based radio and optical observations. The unique radio, UV, and optical emission-line properties of RXJ2014 among the REXCESS clusters makes it the highest-priority REXCESS target for Chandra. Because of its high central brightness, a relatively short exposure will allow the study any AGN bubbles, shocks, and multi-phase gas in its core.
