Abstract:
    The Las Campanas Observatory and Anglo-Australian Telescope Rich
    Cluster Survey (LARCS) is a panoramic imaging and spectroscopic survey
    of an X-ray luminosity-selected sample of 21 clusters of galaxies at
    0.97<z<0.16. Charge-coupled device (CCD) imaging was obtained in B and
    R of typically 2° wide regions centred on the 21 clusters, and the
    galaxy sample selected from the imaging is being used for an on-going
    spectroscopic survey of the clusters with the 2dF spectrograph on the
    Anglo-Australian Telescope.
