We consider a continuous, infinitely divisible random field in Rd, d=1,2,3, given as an integral of a kernel function with respect to a Lévy basis with convolution equivalent Lévy measure. For a large class of such random fields we compute the asymptotic probability that the excursion set at level x contains some rotation of an object with fixed radius as x→∞. Our main result is that the asymptotic probability is equivalent to the right tail of the underlying Lévy measure.
