We propose to observe two redshift z~0.2 clusters, MS0839.9+2938 and MS0440+0204, discovered as bright X-ray sources in the Einstein Medium Sensitivity Survey. The cluster cores are structured in the X-ray and optical bands, and they harbor large cooling flows. Their central cluster galaxies contain luminous nebular emission systems, active star formation, and strong radio sources. Using the Chandra data, we will determine whether the large discrepancies between the X-ray cooling rates and optical star formation rates can be reconciled, and we will test the hypothesis that cooling flows form as cool, dense groups accrete into massive clusters.
