We present initial results from a redshift survey carried out with the Low
Resolution Imaging Spectrograph on the 10~m W. M. Keck Telescope of a field
14.6 arc-min2 in solid angle. In the redshift distribution of the 106
extragalactic objects in this sample we find five strong peaks, with velocity
dispersions of ∼500{\kms}. There is evidence for a non-uniform areal
density of objects in at least two peaks. These peaks have characteristics
(velocity dispersions, density enhancements, spacing, and spatial extent)
similar to those of nearby galaxy structures (e.g., walls and clusters), and
these are expected in a survey of this kind. We suggest that the prominence of
these structures in our survey relative to that in other surveys can be
attributed to our K-selection and dense sampling.Comment: 18 pages, including 2 figures, accepted for publication in ApJ
