Abstract: (arXiv)
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 in the magnitude range 13H0H_0 could be high by as much as 33%.
