X-ray luminous clusters of galaxies at z > 0.3

This thesis presents optical CCD imaging taken as part of the follow-up programme to the Massive Cluster Survey, a ROSAT All-Sky Survey based cluster survey aiming to discover X-ray luminous galaxy clusters at redshifts above 0.3. A data-reduction pipeline is developed to process the V, R and I band...
