The subject of cooling flows in clusters of galaxies remains a controversial one, primarily because many clusters which have large x-ray derived mass inflow rates do not show any optical manifestation of the inflow or of the final fate of the gas. However, a handful of cooling flow clusters do show extended blue continuum regions indicative of current star formation which may be caused by the cooling flows (Romanishin 1987, Romanishin and Hintzen 1988), while another group show spectral evidence of star formation (O'Connell and McNamara 1988). Most of the cluster galaxies which show evidence of star formation also show nuclear activity, in the form of radio emission.
