On five K-band Omega camera images, covering a total of 162.2 sq. arcmin to K=19.5, we investigate (i) the clustering environment of 5 radio galaxies at 0.7<z<0.8 and (ii) the galaxy angular correlation function. We detect a cluster of…

We present a study of the radio properties of 870$\mu$m-selected submillimetre galaxies (SMGs), observed at high resolution with ALMA in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South. From our initial sample of 76 ALMA SMGs, we detect 52 SMGs at…

A catalogue of 14453 radio-loud AGN with 1.4 GHz fluxes above 3.5 mJy in the redshift range 0.4<z<0.8, has been constructed from the cross-correlation of the NVSS and FIRST radio surveys with the MegaZ-LRG catalogue of luminous red galaxies…
