Abstract
The influence of dynamical friction on peculiar velocities in a two-component medium is considered. One of the components is assumed to consist of heavy particles with small gravitational interactions and the other is assumed uniform and its particles of much less weight. Here the solutions for the stationary as well as for the cosmologically expanding medium are obtained. These solutions illustrate the possibility for clusters of galaxies to have super-low velocities.
