Both clusters of galaxies in regions of low cluster density and clusters containing cooling flows have been thought to be relatively sedate with a low level of dynamic activity within the clusters and in the surrounding environment. However, the NVSS (Northern VLA Sky Survey) shows a number of radio sources in these regions. Because extended radio sources, specifically head-tail sources, tend to be in dynamic regions, the NVSS data leads us to think that cooling flow and relatively isolated clusters may not be as sedate at first thought. The authors are examining data taken on the VLA in conjunction with our now complete (to R_10<17.1) catalogue of Abell cluster redshifts to determine if these sources do indeed belong to the clusters in question and what that means to our understanding of dynamics of clusters of galaxies.
