Abstract
Two radio galaxies, the head-tail B1610-605 and the wide-angle-tail B1 610-608, in Abell cluster A3627 have been observed with the Australia Telescope Compact Array. The distribution of relativistic pressure in the jets, lobes and tail has been calculated using the standard equipa rtition conditions. The cluster A3627 is nearby, massive and X-ray-bri ght, but only recently recognized as a significant mass concentration in the local Universe.
