Scientific paper

Deep imaging of a sample of 25 powerful radio galaxies in the redshift range between 0.15 and 0.82 is presented. Amplitudes of the galaxy cross-correlation function about each source are derived. The powerful radio galaxies in this sample at redshifts above 0.3 occupy environments nearly as rich on average as Abell class 0 clusters of galaxies, about three times richer than the environments of the redshifts below 0.3 radio galaxies. The imaging confirms that the most powerful radio galaxies do inhabit rich environments.
