Scientific paper

The collision and subsequent assimilation of small galaxies by larger
ones are examined in connection with cD galaxy radio sources. The
dynamic-friction galactic-cannibalism theory is reviewed. It is noted
that galactic cannibalism accounts for the relative absence of bright
galaxies other than cD galaxies in rich clusters.
