Scientific paper

We propose an imaging study of massive star clusters in M31 using archival Spitzer imaging with IRAC and MIPS. We have two distinct goals: (1) Estimate cluster ages, metallicities, and reddenings through panchromatic FUV to mid-IR imaging, and (2) Assess the production rate and lifetime of dust in the intracluster medium (ICM) as a function of cluster properties. Our results will give important constraints on the star formation history of M31 and on mass loss in stellar clusters.
