Scientific paper

We propose to obtain EPIC observations of an IR-selected galaxy cluster at z=1.41, currently the highest redshift of a known cluster. The target cluster is among the richest found at z > 1 in our IRAC survey of the 9 square degree Bootes field. The X-ray data will allow us to determine 1) if the cluster already has created a hot intracluster medium, as is suggested by a detection in shallow Chandra data, 2) the temperature and luminosity of the ICM, 3) the total cluster mass, and 4) the total cluster mass to light ratio.
