We present K'-band galaxy counts in the magnitude range $13 < K' < 20$, obtained from two independent surveys near the South Galactic Pole, covering an area of $\sim 40 arcmin^2$ and $\sim 170 arcmin^2$, including $\sim 200$ and $\sim 1000$…

We present the results of a wide-field K-selected galaxy survey with complementary optical I- and B-band imaging in six fields with a total coverage of 9.8 square degrees. This survey establishes the bright-end K-band galaxy number counts…

We present bright galaxy number counts measured with linear detectors in the B, V, I, and K bands in two fields covering nearly 10 square degrees. All of our measurements are consistent with passive evolution models, and do not confirm the…

New near-infrared galaxy counts in the J and K bands are presented over a total area of 0.70 and 0.97 degrees^2, respectively. The limiting magnitudes of the deepest regions are 19.5 in J and 18.0 in K. At J>16 and K>15 our J and K-band…

We present K-band number counts for the faint galaxies in the Calar Alto Deep Imaging Survey (CADIS). We covered 4 CADIS fields, a total area of 0.2deg^2, in the broad band filters B, R and K. We detect about 4000 galaxies in the K-band…

We present new deep $K'$ counts of stars at the South Galactic Pole (SGP) taken with the NAOJ PICNIC camera to $K'=17.25$. Star-galaxy separation to $K'=17.5$ was accomplished effectively using image profiles because the pixel size we used…

We combine deep K-band (Keck) with V- and I-band (NTT) observations of two high-Galactic latitude fields, surveying a total of ~2 sq. arcmin. The K-band galaxy counts continue to rise above K=22, reaching surface densities of few x 10^5 per…

We present results from a large area (552\,\sqamin) imaging $K$-band survey to a 5$\sigma$ limit of $K\simeq 17.3$. We have optical-infrared colours of almost all the objects in the sample. Star-galaxy discrimination is performed and the…

We present the J- and Ks-band galaxy counts and galaxy colors covering 750 square arcminutes in the deep AKARI North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) field, using the FLoridA Multi-object Imaging Near-ir Grism Observational Spectrometer (FLAMINGOS) on…

We measured the K-band luminosity function using a complete sample of 4192 morphologically-typed 2MASS galaxies with 7 < K < 11.25 mag spread over 2.12 str. Early-type (T < -0.5) and late-type (T > -0.5) galaxies have similarly shaped…

We discuss near-infrared star counts at the Galactic pole with a view to guiding the NGST and ground-based NIR cameras. Star counts from deep K-band images from the CFHT are presented, and compared with results from the 2MASS survey and…

We present bright galaxy number counts in five broad bands ($u', g', r', i', z'$) from imaging data taken during the commissioning phase of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The counts are derived from two independent stripes of imaging…

We investigate the angular correlation function, $\omega(\theta)$, of the galaxi es detected in the K-band on 17 fields (101.5 square arcmin in total), each containing a $z\sim 1.1$ radio galaxy. There is a significant detection of galaxy…

We investigate the causes of the different shape of the $K$-band number counts when compared to other bands, analyzing in detail the presence of a change in the slope around $K\sim17.5$. We present a near-infrared imaging survey, conducted…

High-precision (sigma < 0.01) new JHK observations of 226 of the brightest and nearest red clump stars in the solar neighbourhood are used to determine distance moduli for the LMC. The resulting K- and H-band values of 18.47\pm0.02 and…

We present herein galaxy number counts of the nine bands in the 2-24 micron range on the basis of the AKARI North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) surveys. The number counts are derived from NEP-deep and NEP-wide surveys, which cover areas of 0.5 and…

We measure the variance in the distribution of off-plane (|b|>20 deg.) galaxies with m_K<13.5 from the 2MASS K-band survey in circles of diameter between 0.344 deg. and 57.2 deg. The use of a near-infrared survey makes negligible the…

Angular and spatial correlations are measured for K-band--selected galaxies, 248 having redshifts, 54 with z>1, in two patches of combined area 27 arcmin^2. The angular correlation for K<=21.5 mag is (theta/1.4+/-0.19 arcsec…

Galaxy number counts in the $K$-, $H$-, $I$-, $R$-, $B$- and $U$-bands from the Durham Extragalactic Astronomy and Cosmology catalogue could be well-fitted over their whole range using luminosity function (LF) parameters derived from the…

We investigate the large-scale structure of the local galaxy distribution using the recently completed 2 Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS). First, we determine the K-band number counts over the 4000 sq.deg. APM survey area where evidence for a…
