Abstract
Combined X-ray, optical and radio observations have been undertaken with the goal of studying the evolution of the dynamical processes in clusters of galaxies. Preliminary results are presented for a set of 13 clusters taken from a ROSAT flux limited sample. The correlation amongst the three wavelengths appears stronger for the higher redshift members of this sample, indicating either a luminosity selection effect or a possible evolution in cluster properties with redshift.
