Abstract

We demonstrate that high-redshift 1-Jansky radio sources are correlated with foreground IRAS galaxies on angular scales of several 10 arc minutes on a statistical significance level of up to 99.8%. Based on a theoretical analysis published earlier, we propose to interpret these correlations in terms of gravitational lensing by large- scale structures.
