Abstract:
    We present the results of a survey for extremely red objects (EROs)
    undertaken in the fields of 10 massive galaxy cluster lenses at z∼0.2,
    combining sensitive, high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope imaging
    with deep, half-arcsecond K-band imaging from UKIRT. We detect 60 EROs
    with (R-K)≥5.3, of which 26 have (R-K)≥6.0 in a total image-plane
    survey area of 49arcmin2 down to K=20.6, including one multiply imaged
    ERO.
