Galaxy protocluster candidates at 1.6< z?2

We present a study of protoclusters associated with high redshift radio galaxies. We imaged MRC 1017-220 (z = 1.77) and MRC 0156-252 (z = 2.02) using the near-infrared wide-field (7.5' × 7.5') imager VLT/HAWK-I in the Y, H, and Ks> bands. We present the first deep Y-band galaxy numb...
