Scientific paper

A sample of 71 double and triple radio sources is examined in a study of the dependence of radio luminosity and source size on cluster membership. For cluster classification, a method based directly on the number of galaxies in the neighborhood of each source was found to be preferable to a method based on the Abell and Zwicky catalogs. When the former method is used, it is found that there is a significant absence of very large sources (larger than 600 kpc) in regions of high galactic density, although the majority of high- and low-count sources exhibit sizes which are similar. There is no significant difference in luminosity between high- and low-count sources.
