Abstract
The components of radio sources are identified with bubbles of relativistic plasma rising through the hot gas which produces the X-ray emission from clusters of galaxies. Continuous release of energy in the nucleus of a galaxy will lead to the formation of two such bubbles, moving in opposite directions along the axis of rotation.
