Abstract

Thorough investigation of clusters of galaxies involves the complete modelling of their dynamics and structure. Presented here is a description of such a substantial project utilizing a sample of several rich southern clusters of galaxies. Incorporating results from radial velocity analyses of cluster galaxies and X-ray images of the clusters into rigorously constructed models of the cluster potential well and atmosphere will enable the dynamics, structure and evolution of clusters to be tied down.
