Scientific paper

The discovery of optical filaments around the galaxy NGC 4696 in the
Centaurus cluster is reported. The filaments are strong in the light of
forbidden line N II 6583 A. and extend to about 6 kpc from the nucleus
of the galaxy. This result, together with X-ray observations, confirms
the presence of a cooling flow in the Centaurus cluster.
