Scientific paper

We present the first measurement of the angular correlation function in a $K$-selected galaxy survey, from two fields covering almost 10 square degrees. The angular correlation function at small angles is well described by a $\theta^{-0.8}$ power law, as for optically selected samples. The clustering amplitude is reduced by a factor of $\sim 4$ between galaxies with $K<15$ and a fainter magnitude slice with $15
