Scientific paper

A system of optical filaments has been discovered surrounding the
central galaxy in the X-ray cluster A496. This suggests that the
intracluster gas in A496 is cooling and being accreted by that galaxy.
Observations of the X-ray surface brightness and spectrum support this
interpretation.
