Popis: Luminous radio sources are thought to lie in galaxy clusters or proto-clusters. The complete sample of 64 high-redshift 3C sources at $13\sigma$) within 30" ($\sim$250 kpc) projected distance from the radio source compared to the surrounding galaxy densities measured in the $50''-120''$ annulus. The Pan-STARRS/IRAC cut reveals higher average overdensities than the IRAC1/2 cut and also a decline of overdensities at $z>1.4$. To infer the nature of the cluster members, we rerun the analysis using a stronger IRAC1/2 cut $[3.6] - [4.5] < -0.1$ which removes $1
