Scientific paper

Structures of several wide-angle-tailed radio sources are calculataed under the assumption that they represent trails of moving supermassive black holes. Black holes are set in motion during mergers of galaxies and in many cases oscillate about the center of the merged galaxy for billions of years. In addition, it is assumed that the merged galaxy moves through the intergalactic medium. A good match with the brightness distributions in 3C 288 and 3C 465 is obtained, while the case of 3C 75 is more difficult to model due to its double-nucleus structure. The flip-flop model of Rudnick and Edgar (1984) is in many ways analogous to the slingshot model.
